A college degree and work experience is the minimum requirement to be a judge. Most judges have worked as lawyers. In fact, Federal and State judges usually must have worked as lawyers. That means that they need to go to law school. Law school usually takes 3 years after college.
All States have some type of training for new judges. Judges take short classes about the law throughout their careers.
To get ready for this job, students can take English classes to learn how to write, do research, and make presentations. Social studies classes teach about research and the law. Students who want to be judges also need strong reading skills.

Yes the must be the attorney at least 10 years.. then they may be selected as Judge if they have proof that when they were Attorneys have given all confidential information's of their clients to the Courts, and have obeyed persiding judges in committed crimes against clients and public with 'Close Eyes" which means whatever they said the accepted...then the must show evidence that when they were kid had criminal records for thefts and frauds to be qualified to be a judge in Canada, Ontario and Quebec. Because Judges here they steal documents in such that NO one can prove that any any court.
