Overview
The creation of this program responds to a growing need expressed by legal professionals (attorneys, notaries, bailiffs, solicitors, etc.) as well as business leaders (corporate legal departments, etc.) and the public and quasi-public sectors (court clerks’ offices, social services, social insurance agencies, etc.).
The program facilitates entry into the workforce by training “operational” legal assistants upon completion of the program, while leaving the door wide open for students to further their professional training (through recognition of prior learning).
Designed and organized in close partnership with the professional world, it offers students the opportunity to acquire the fundamentals of a professional career and guides them toward autonomy in carrying out their work.
