A heart attack may cause cardiac arrest. **http://www.heart.org/HEARTORG/CPRAndECC/WhatisCPR/CP RFactsandStats/CPR-Statistics_UCM_307542_Article.jsp Use of American Heart Association materials in an educational course does not represent course sponsorship by the American Heart Association.

No. Because Paralegal is a Continuing Education program, you do not receive credit hours so classes are not transferable. Paralegal is a non-credit certificate program. Is Financial Aid available for Paralegal? Some. Again, because you do not receive credit hours, Paralegal is not HOPE or Pell eligible, but it is eligible for some government-funded financial aid such as WIA – Workforce Investment Act. For more information on WIA, contact your local Department of Labor or your campus WIA Coordinator. Do I have to start classes in September? No. You may come in at any time in the program, provided the class is not a part “II”, such as Civil Litigation II – you must take the part “I” first. How long will it take to complete the program? Slightly under a year, if you take two classes per week. Classes are six weeks long, so including a few breaks now and then plus most of December off, it takes about 11 months. Is there job placement assistance during or after I complete the program? the program. Not officially. However, we do receive job announcements throughout the year from various attorneys, and we always pass those along to the students. Internships are also available occasionally. Networking opportunities will be made available, including a Facebook page. Additionally, most instruc tors are wonderful about passing along career opportunity information. Are the instructors qualified? Are classes evenings only, or day and evening? No. Currently they are at the North Metro Campus in Acworth only. Classes are evenings only. Tuesday and Thursday, from 6:30pm to 9:30pm. How are the classes structured? Are textbooks required for every class? No. Currently there is no required textbook. An optional text which may be purchased is Black’s Law Dictionary, but this is strictly optional, not required. Be prepared to take lecture notes with every instructor, and some use handouts. Will I be able to handle the homework load if I have a full-time job and/or a family? Yes, you should be able to. Homework depends, of course, upon the instructor, and some may have more than others, but it has been handled capably in the past by others who have been through Yes. All instructors, with the exception of the Introduction class, are attorneys who specialize in their respective fields. The Introduction instructor is an experienced and highly qualified Paralegal. Are classes offered at other CTC campuses? Most classes are structured on a lecture basis – you will spend the first five weeks in lecture (occasionally an instructor might require a field trip but those are rare) then the last week will be your final exam. How do I register and pay for the classes? If you are an incoming new student, you will need to register at least four business days before the class starts and pay for the first two classes (if you are taking both). Pay as you go, not all up front.

As more cabling technicians become adept at working with fiber optic cable, many commercial and even residential projects are requiring this proficiency. Fiber optic cabling is steadily replacing copper wire as the preferred means of communication signal transmission. They span the long distances between local phone systems as well as providing the backbone for many network systems.

The key factor is whether or not the member has used any of his or her GI Bill in the past; only unused benefits can be transfered. This means that if the member has used 12 months of his or her GI Bill, then there is only 24 months of benefit left to share. Servicemembers must meet specific criteria to be eligible to transfer their GI Bill benefits. This includes having at least six years of service and an obligation to serve at least four more. Learn more about the rules for transferring GI Bill benefits.
