State Bar Association - Continuing Legal Education Requirements

Continuing Legal Education Requirements

The rules of most state bar associations require members to complete Continuing Legal Education ("CLE") requirements., and also offer courses for lawyers in their area, with discounts to members of the particular bar association. A great many organizations offer CLE programs, including most or all state bar associations. Uniquely, the Kentucky Bar Association offers a two-day program known as Kentucky Law Update, conducted in at least seven locations throughout the state, that allows its members to satisfy their annual CLE requirement without a registration fee.
