Paralegal Sofia is moving to a state where paralegals are "registered." She asks you what she can expect when she goes to get a new job there. You can tell her:

A) most registration statutes do not have a minimum requirement for education or training. The purpose of registration is just to allow the state to find the registered person.
B) if she is going to work directly with members of the public in a registration state, she will have to register, tell the state authority (whichever one it is) where she lives, works, and that she is financially responsible. She may have to post a bond.
C) if she is going to get a traditional job working for lawyers, registration is not an issue for her.
D) Registration statutes are designed to collect contact information about the registered people and most registration statutes do not include a requirement of a minimum education, but lawyers do not typically require registration.
