PACE Review Class
September 13, 2010
There is still time to register. The course runs for seven weeks, plus a brief pre-course on line orientation to familiarize students with the software used by AIPS. The courses are taught through computer-mediated distance learning. Students may communicate with instructors or classmates around the clock from their home or office computer. The course is structured, paced and gated.
The review course will assist paralegals in preparation to take PACE by covering the five domains: administration of client legal matters, development of client legal matters, factual and legal research, factual and legal writing, and office administration. Ethics questions are found in each domain. The textbook will be the PACE Study Manual and a mock PACE exam will be administered at the conclusion of the course. You will also receive an analysis of your weak areas and what domains you need to concentrate on as you conclude your test preparation.
Tuition for the PACE Review Course is $395.00. The PACE Study Manual can be purchased by the student directly from NFPA as well as the Publisher, Prentice Hall, or on Amazon.com. The cost of the Study Manual is $77.40. More information can be found here.
