Basic Legal Training Course Online

In cooperation with Stetson University, NALS is now offering the Basic Legal Training Course online. This will benefit individuals who are not within reach of a local NALS chapter but wish to take the course and to prepare for the ALS Examination. The course is also applicable for persons already in the legal support profession who want to expand their job knowledge.

The cost of the course is $795, including texts. This is more than the amount for on-site programs; the increased cost is for the use of attorneys to deliver the program and the use of Stetson’s Blackboard™ learning management system.

We are very enthusiastic about reaching out to individuals that we have been unable to reach before!
