The Baker College of Auburn Hills paralegal program has received re-approval by the American Bar Association (ABA).
The program includes the Associate of Business in paralegal and the Bachelor of Science in legal studies.
The ABA approves paralegal education programs that meet stringent guidelines to promote high-quality paralegal education, training and educational standards.
“This ABA re-approval is excellent news for students who are in or are considering our paralegal program,” said Peter W. Karsten, Baker College of Auburn Hills president. “This further demonstrates that
Baker College is providing a high-quality education for their intended career field.
Karsten said program director Melissa Manela and the paralegal faculty and staff “work diligently to prepare students for real-world jobs and have made this program milestone possible.”
The paralegal program was launched at the Auburn Hills campus in 2002 and approved in 2008.
Although ABA approvals are valid for seven years, programs must submit interim reports to maintain the designation.
Baker College of Auburn Hills is one of 13 higher education institutions in Michigan to offer an ABA-approved paralegal program and one of three to offer an ABA-approved paralegal bachelor’s program.
