The American Bar Association House of Delegates has reapproved the Roane State Community College Paralegal Studies program.
The reapproval successfully concludes a two-year self-evaluation of the program by the college.
“I am pleased that the ABA has reapproved our program,” said Ken Yager, director of the program. “Reapproval is a designation signifying the college’s adherence to the highest academic standards and ABA requirements. Graduates of our program are fully prepared to enter the workforce.”
The paralegal studies program, which consistently has a 100 percent job placement rate, was first approved by the ABA in 2005. The ABA reapproval lasts through August 2019.
