Online Learning
Professional Legal Education Certificate Programs are taught entirely online. Course content is delivered via the web through our Canvas learning management system.
You will need an up-to-date computer and reliable high-speed internet service to watch video lectures, download readings, complete exercises, and participate in online discussions.
Your Computer
Both Windows and Mac-based computers are compatible with the Certificate Program’s learning management system. A desktop or laptop computer with the recommended system specifications ensures full access to course content and complete Canvas functionality. Mobile devices or tablets can be used for many course activities, but complete functionality is not guaranteed.
