A Career You’re Passionate About
The program prepared me to assist attorneys and excel in my career. Above all, the program taught me that this career requires attention to detail and a willingness to learn and adapt. I am so thankful that I took the plunge and enrolled in OU’s legal assistant program. It set me on a career path that I am passionate and excited about.
