April 3, 2023 – DALLAS, TX – CLS by BARBRI, a leading continuing legal education company, today announced the launch of their career center that connects paralegals across all disciplines and career stages with employers offering career opportunities.

Current and former CLS by BARBRI students who have completed at least 60% of the course will gain exclusive access to the Career Center and will also receive the opportunity to submit one free resume for review.

“Providing our students with professional development and career growth opportunities is core to our mission to serve the paralegal profession,” said Stephanie Elio, Director of Business Development, CLS by BARBRI. “Our students are highly appealing to employers because they’ve demonstrated a commitment to the highest levels of integrity and training.
