Using Your Law School Education

Enhance Your Career Opportunities With An Online Law Degree

Your expertise + a law degree = unbeatable career

Do you have a background in the arts? Or is the environment your passion? Or maybe you have a degree or experience in business, science, government, the nonprofit world, public service, healthcare, social service, education, journalism, sports management or any number of other career areas.

If you’re looking for a way to change direction or simply increase your marketability, a legal education can open doors and expand horizons.

Concord Law School offers two online law degree programs:

The Juris Doctor program meets the legal education requirements of the State Bar of California developing the knowledge and skills necessary to be an effective member of the legal profession.

The Executive JD^SM provides a professional law degree for those individuals who do not intend to become practicing attorneys. It is designed for individuals who are seeking an understanding of the U.S. legal system to enhance their current career, to open up employment opportunities, or for their personal growth.

Increasingly, a law degree is the ticket into a host of rewarding careers – many of which don't require taking a bar exam, joining a practice or engaging in any of those high-drama courtroom scenes you’ve seen on Law and Order or Boston Legal.

"With legal issues permeating all aspects of human endeavor, the opportunities now available to law school graduates are legion," says Richard Hermann, a Washington, D.C. based legal career consultant and Concord professor. "And those opportunities range all across the board."
