IN-PERSON ATTENDANCE HAS ITS PERKS



Continuing Legal Education in Colorado, Inc. (CBA-CLE) values you and your participation in the Colorado legal community.  The pandemic taught us that community building comes more naturally in person than it ever could via Zoom. Attending CBA-CLE events in person is a great way to network and meet new colleagues.



To encourage community building through in-person attendance, CBA-CLE will be holding a drawing at every live program held in the CLE Classroom, available only to in-person attendees. The winner will receive a CLE Elite Pass for 1 year (a value of $1195 for members/$1495 for non-members) simply by attending live.

 


CLE CREDITS: This program has been submitted for 4 General CLE Credits.

 

 

The program is accredited in Colorado. CBA-CLE staff can provide a Uniform Certificate of Attendance, and it is the attendee's responsibility to complete the accreditation outside of Colorado.

 

CBA-CLE will email webinar access information 24-48 hours before the program.

 

Home studies will be available 2-3 weeks following the live program.

 

CBA-CLE is committed to providing access, equal opportunity, and reasonable accommodation in its services, programs, and employment. To request an accommodation please contact [email protected] at least 14 business days in advance.
