The first poster gave you the only link you need, to the ABA's list of paralegal programs. Check the ones in your area that offer certificate programs.
FYI, transitioning into the paralegal profession is not something that is fast. It is not quick. You have to put in your time. Paralegal is not an entry-level position. Even with your BA and a certificate, you might have to start at the bottom (legal secretary, clerk, receptionist) until you gain enough legal experience to qualify as a paralegal. Especially in the new york job market! |

My advice, ask a local paralegal association in NY. I've listed some places I would start asking.
My question is, why do you need a paralegal certificate after attaining a Political Science degree?
Good Luck! |
