Resources
The Commission for Advanced California Paralegal Specialization does not endorse paralegal programs nor comment on the quality of such programs. CACPS has provided a link to ABA-approved California paralegal education programs for review by individuals interested in finding a paralegal program in their area. It has no further information other than what is provided on the list, and it encourages individuals to contact the program director if they are interested in any further information. Reviewing the American Association for Paralegal Education's Statement of Academic Quality should prove helpful in selecting a paralegal program.
