In the spring of 2006, Virginia College Online launched its online paralegal degree program in response to the growing demand for paralegal training. Since its debut, the program has attracted a lot of interest among students interested in capitalizing on the availability of paralegal jobs in today's job market.
“In just a short few months, several dozen students have enrolled and are successfully pursuing their paralegal degrees online,” said Stan Banks, President of Virginia College Online. “We expect that enrollment will continue to rise as more students realize they can receive the education they need from the comfort of their own homes, and without sacrificing any part of their busy lives.”
The paralegal field is a rapidly expanding career opportunity. More paralegal jobs are becoming available than ever before, as employers cut costs by delegating more and more work to paralegals instead of attorneys. Virginia College Online's associate's degree program acknowledges this trend by providing students with the paralegal training they need to be successful in the field. Courses teach students the basics of law, as well as how to perform legal research, process and write legal documents, and administer wills and trusts. All courses in the VC Online paralegal associate's degree program are taught by instructors who have experience in the field.
In operation for more than 20 years, Virginia College is an accredited college that offers everything from certificates, diplomas, and associate's degrees, to bachelor's and master's degrees. Although the school has physical campuses in Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, and Texas, Virginia College Online offers students the flexibility of pursuing much needed job training and education in their own homes. The programs at Virginia College Online, such as the paralegal associate's degree, are geared toward helping students complete their degrees quickly and conveniently. The school also offers financial aid to qualified students, a comprehensive price that even includes the cost of textbooks, and a tuition rate that is guaranteed not to go up as long as the student stays in school. Additionally, Virginia College Online offers career placement assistance to its program graduates.
