The Legal Assisting/Paralegal Advanced Technical certificate is designed to enable students who already hold any college degree (other than the legal assisting A.S./A.A.S. degree) to take paralegal training at State College of Florida, Manatee-Sarasota (SCF) and qualify to take the National Paralegal Certification (CLA) exam. It further prepares those students for work of a legal nature in law offices, corporations or government agencies.
