Law & Justice Diplomas
A diploma in law and justice is designed to provide students with the necessary skills to enter the legal profession as a paralegal or legal secretary. Programs typically take eighteen months or less to complete and are perfect for the part-time student. A diploma in law and justice will likely provide courses that prepare students to perform basic legal research and to complete legal documents such as subpoenas and complaints. The Penn Foster Career School offers self-paced diploma programs in the areas of legal assistant, legal secretary, and legal transcriptionist. The Paralegal Institute offers a criminal justice diploma program that focuses on the areas of constitutional law, criminal investigations, and ethics.
A diploma in law and justice is right for you if you are looking to advance your career in the legal service field by developing specialized skills without investing the time or expense of a four year degree program. Research the education requirements for specific law and justice field careers at our law and justice career center page.
According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment for those working as paralegals or legal secretaries is expected to grow at a rate of twenty-eight percent over the next decade. Those who have completed diploma programs in this field will likely be employed by private law firms, corporate legal offices, and local, state, or federal government agencies.
