Students who have been looking for the opportunity to take
their first steps into the legal profession will find that Bramson ORT’s
Paralegal Associate Degree provides the perfect combination of theoretical
classroom education and practical knowledge that will allow them to immediately
enter the workforce as competent professionals. Graduates of the Paralegal
Associate Degree program now occupy positions with distinguished law firms and
other established businesses across the country.
Introducing The Paralegal Profession
Paralegals provide critical administrative support for
lawyers, particularly in situations where extensive research and document
creation/organization is required. It is interesting to note that paralegals
can be found in a wide variety of organizations and businesses, including
private law firms, the legal departments of large corporations, as well as
various government agencies.
Although the demands of the working paralegal may be heavy,
those employed in this profession benefit from relatively stable job security
and a rewarding salary. According to the United States Department of Labor, the
paralegal field will grow approximately 17% through the year 2022, well above
the national average for the vast majority of professions. Industry experts
predict that paralegals who are well versed in current computer skills and
industry software will have the best chances of securing rewarding employment
that fully utilizes their current skills. The current median wage for
paralegals is approximately $46,990, significantly higher than the national
average.
Given the fact that the path towards a career as a paralegal
only requires an Associate’s degree or formal certification in paralegal
studies, the Paralegal Associate Degree at Bramson ORT is perfect for both new
students and mid-career professionals who are looking to begin a new career as
quickly as possible.
