This individualized, competency-based unit on dealing with legal issues, the ninth of 18 modules, is on the third level of the revised Program for Acquiring Competence in Entrepreneurship (PACE).

Materials provided include objectives, preparation information, an overview, content (with questions in margins that guide the students' reading), activities, assessment forms, and notes and sources. The unit requires using approximately 3 hours of class time. (YLB)
