General Certification Test

We recently launched the State Bar of Wisconsin Certified Paralegal™ Program’s General Certification Test. This is a new opportunity for certified paralegals to further distinguish themselves within the State Bar of Wisconsin Certified Paralegal (SBWCP™) program. The exam is designed to assess paralegals’ substantive knowledge and practical skills across key areas of Wisconsin law, including real estate, family law, estate planning and probate, and more.
