The Associate Level Program consists of four courses: Litigation, Corporate, Real Estate and Estates. The program is designed to enhance the education and skills of law clerks already in the profession, expand the knowledge of experienced legal assistants and provide the basic academic foundation needed for people with legal experience planning a career as a Law Clerk. These courses are designed to prepare a student to write The Institute of Law Clerks of Ontario's Provincial Examinations. The exams are worth 100 % of your course mark and are written online.
In order to receive the Associate Program Certificate, you must successfully complete the examinations in all four of areas of law. The passing grade is 60 percent and honours is 80 percent or higher.
Each course is offered once per year at ILCO via Webinar.
ATTENDANCE: Attendance is mandatory. Classes will not be recorded. Students are expected to attend class on a regular basis.
RESCHEDULING: There is no option to reschedule the exam.
