Paralegal Education

Paralegal education is a very individual thing.  Some paralegals have four-year paralegal degrees, others have four-year degrees in other fields and a paralegal certificate, yet others have two-year paralegal degrees.  Some have simply worked their way into a paralegal position through on-the-job experience.  Yet they're all paralegals. 

If you're considering pursuing a career as a paralegal, hopefully, the information posted here under the "Choosing a Program" and "MN Paralegal Schools" drop-down buttons will assist you in determining the best route to take to achieve that goal.  Good luck!

The Minnesota Paralegal Association does not endorse or make referrals to any legal service providers.  We strongly recommend that persons in need of legal services seek the advice of an attorney. At the present time, Minnesota has no minimum qualifications for persons calling themselves paralegals. The risk to the consumer of using such a person to provide legal services, without attorney oversight, is very high.  
The Minnesota State Bar Association offers attorney referrals as do both the Hennepin and Ramsey County Bar Associations.
