The Paralegal Studies Program provides students with
training necessary to seek and begin career as a paralegal.
Under the supervision of a lawyer, paralegals gather background information;
interview clients and witnesses; perform legal research and writing;
draft legal documents and contracts; and assist attorneys in preparing
for court and at trial.*
All paralegal specialty courses at Nashua Community College are taught by
experienced attorneys.
In all paralegal specialty courses the students will not only be
taught the essential knowledge of the law, but will also be given the
practical knowledge necessary for employment and success as a paralegal.
Personalized advising and career counseling are always available to
all our paralegal students.
The Program Director also actively assists our qualified students and
graduates (both Degree and Certificate) in obtaining full-time career positions
through the Paralegal Internship program, and through contacts in the legal community.**
Nashua Community College is an Institutional Member of the American Association for Paralegal Education.
