Notes:
Credits: 1 Blue Marble University Credit = 1 USA Semester Credit. Although registered in the Commonwealth of Dominica, we follow the USA Code of Federal Regulations requiring “one hour of classroom or direct faculty instruction [or 60 minutes of preparation in a correspondence course] and a minimum of two hours of out of class student work each week for approximately fifteen weeks for one semester or trimester hour of credit”, which translates to 15 hours of notational learning plus 30 hours of study. Each Term is 15 weeks. Blue Marble University operates all year round with no breaks. Each term is 15 weeks, comparable to a standard US semester of 15 weeks. Consequently, each student can complete the equivalent of three 15-week terms per year.
Completion of BA Program in 2 years 8 months. Each Term is 15 weeks, and because we cover 3 terms per year with no breaks, this BA Law degree can be completed in 2 years 8 months. There is no need to “register” for any classes, each students follows the same curriculum and is enrolled in each class automatically and on time.
Among the many career possibilities are:
Claims Adjuster. As employees of insurance companies, claims adjusters will principally benefit from the broad understanding of contracts and torts that they receive as part of their legal studies degree. Claims adjusters evaluate claims made to insurance companies, inspect property damage (or other documentation of a claim), and make decisions about how much the insurance company will pay on each claim. Entry-level jobs involve simple claim decisions, such as deciding on payouts based on diagnostic codes. More senior positions involve inspection, analysis, and decision-making on major claims, such as building fires or damages resulting from natural disasters.
Zoning Inspector. Work with the permitting process, inspecting projects, issuing permits.
Probation Officer. Other graduates with a legal studies degree might choose to work as probation officers, parole officers, or in other roles in the corrections field.
Social Worker. Program NOT designed for licensing as a social worker, but for work for governmental agencies at the state or local level, others work at hospitals, charities, mental health clinics, non-profit organizations, or rehabilitation centers.
Government Employee. Working for the government can include a wide range of federal, state, and local government positions, mostly involving regulations.
Litigation Support Professional. The term litigation support professional includes a wide range of professions ranging from e-discovery specialists who assist lawyers during the discovery process, litigation paralegals, trial and jury consultants, court reports, as well as expert witnesses from various backgrounds, including medical and legal experts. All of these litigation support professionals are essential to help attorneys at various stages of a civil case.
Tax Preparer. Operate your own tax preparation service.
Company Organization and Business Operations. Engage in business start-ups, and assist managing companies and employees.
Bookkeeping: Operate a bookkeeping business.
Real Estate Agent. Real estate agents facilitate the purchase and sale of real estate including residential, commercial, and undeveloped properties. While you don’t need to obtain a degree in order to become a realtor, a legal studies degree does prepare real estate agents for contract negotiations and execution, analysis of zoning laws and other local regulations, as well as for more esoteric issues, such as property line disputes and fraudulent omissions. Having a legal studies degree is especially beneficial for those who want to pursue a specialty like short sales or specific types of commercial property.
