Training record

As there is no formalised or prescribed training for paralegals at present, the success of the School is totally dependent on its reputation. Unique in South Africa, the School’s high standards and quality tuition have led to its acceptance as a leader in the field of legal support staff education. See our clients for a list of law firms, companies and private persons whom we have trained from 2000 - 2005. Also see the comments of our students regarding the quality and usefulness or our courses.
