ILCO Associate Program

Online

The Institute of Law Clerks of Ontario (ILCO) offers the ILCO Associate Program. According to the ILCO, the ILCO Associate Program “is designed to enhance the education and skills of law clerks already in the profession, expand the knowledge of experienced legal assistants, and provide the basic academic foundation needed for people with legal experience planning a career as a law clerk.”

Individuals who complete the four required courses (Corporate, Estates, Litigation, and Real Estate) and pass the four related ILCO provincial exams are eligible to receive the ILCO Associate Program certificate from the ILCO. ILCO awards the certificate. However, George Brown College has been recognized by the ILCO as a provider of courses that are equivalent to the ILCO Associate Program’s academic course requirements.
