Acknowledgements and Affirmations
 


By submitting this document, I acknowledge the following:

I have read the Learning Contract Information Page, specifically the sections entitled:

Active Engagement with Content
Application and Evaluation
Credentialing Process

I acknowledge that the following research-proven strategies are useful
to a successful experience in self-directed learning:

  • Spending at least 15 minutes a day working on the program provides a steady pace for success

  • Exploring additional information and/or links provided throughout the program enables the program to fit individual needs

  • Talking with colleagues about questions and concepts provides support and real-world experience to reinforce concepts learned online

  • Taking responsibility for developing the self-directed credentialing opportunity requires constantly seeking connections between the content presented and  real-world applications

A score of 90% correct is required for each module test;
the module tests may be retaken until I reach the 90% minimum or I am satisfied with the score.

Ethics and Integrity

I understand that this program relies heavily on participant integrity and honesty; therefore I agree that all materials submitted will be accurate representations of my work and efforts.

I understand that seeking information from outside sources, asking a colleague to explain a concept, or seeking help from a representative of the Advanced Paralegal Certification Board is a standard part of self-directed learning and does not constitute cheating.

I agree to abide by the NALA Code of Ethics.

By submitting this document electronically to the Advanced Paralegal Certification Board,
I acknowledge the above information and agree fully to participate as a self-directed learner.
