Blackstone Career Institute offers a Legal Assistant or Paralegal program for those interested in home study. Blackstone has an impeccable reputation and has
provided legal training continuously since 1890, with the distinction of being
one of the first distance education training schools.
Thousands of students later, we continue to improve our programs. Our latest
endeavor offers an
Online Student Center to all active Blackstone students.
The Online Student Center allows you to select the course delivery method
that best fits your educational preferences and your learning style.
It generally takes between eight months and two years to complete the Blackstone
Legal Assistant or Paralegal program. Our program provides the required clock hours
needed to sit for the Certified Legal Assistant (CLA) examination given by the
National Association of Legal Assistants (NALA).
Blackstone offers access to the LexisNexis ® Total Research System to all of our
students at a special student rate. This includes an online tutorial, a 24-hour help
line and a step-by-step LexisNexis ® learning guide.
