Judicial Nominating Commissions: What You Need to Apply and Serve - Webinar
Have you ever wondered how to apply for a Judicial Nominating Commission (JNC) vacancy or what being a JNC member entails? Current JNC members will outline the nuts and bolts of the application process, responsibilities, and duties.
If disability accommodations or special assistance are needed, please contact us at [email protected]. Requests must be made at least two weeks prior to the scheduled program.
The program will be submitted for CLE accreditation in Colorado. If you need to seek accreditation in another state, please review the process and requirements for that individual state. CBA-CLE staff can provide a Uniform Certificate of Attendance, and it is the attendee’s responsibility to complete the accreditation outside of Colorado.
The home study will be available approximately 2-3 weeks following the live program.
