Testimonials

The PTP training is worth it. It is a very competitive training program. The lecturers and mentors are the best in the field, and efficient in their methods of teaching. The knowledge and skills taught in the program are very useful both inside and outside of work.

It has been an honor to be trained and be certified by the Paralegal Training Program of the UP Law Center. The training has truly brought out the best of me.

A fulfilling and exciting experience that isn't solely for paralegals or people who wish to be paralegals, but also for anyone who wants to build a strong foundation and appreciation for their understanding of law.
