Description
Accreditation Policy
Federal Bar Association CLE will seek credit where attending attorneys are primarily licensed for all of its live webinars and live teleconferences, except in states which allow for reciprocity (see reciprocity section below). Credit for CLE in a self-study format is sought for in most states; however, some states do not allow for CLE credit to be earned in a self-study format (see the self-study section below). Many states typically decide whether a program qualifies for MCLE credit in their jurisdiction 4-8 weeks after the program application is submitted. For many live events, credit approval is not received prior to the program. Credit hours granted are subject to approval from each state. MCLE Accreditation will be sought in every state except IL. MCLE accreditation in IL is limited to CLE classes attended by other IL attorneys.
Reciprocity
Additionally, some states allow for credit to be granted on a 1:1 reciprocal basis for courses approved in another mandatory CLE jurisdiction state. This is known as a reciprocity provision and includes the following states: AK, AR, CO, ME, MT, ND, NJ, NY. Federal Bar Association CLE does not seek direct accreditation of live webinars or teleconferences in these states.
Self-Study
Federal Bar Association CLE will seek self-study approval in all states except Minnesota.
All-Access Pass
All-Access Pass CLE credits are available for all states except for Illinois.
