Continuing Legal Education (CLE)

The purpose of continuing legal education (CLE) shall be to enhance the participant's professional competence as an attorney. Our Continuing Legal Education (CLE) online courses meet the necessary requirements for official CLE units approved through the Florida Bar. We have worked with legal experts and subject professionals to develop the many courses offered.

The courses below are offered for attorneys in all levels, with professional development a main target. We have courses going online continuously to meet the ever changing needs of working attorneys. Our course "bundles" will satisfy The Bar's requirement for specific course subjects such as ethics, professionalism, mental illness awareness, and substance abuse.

This program is designed for attorneys licensed in the State of Florida. Attorneys licensed in other states may take the course; however, receiving credit is at the discretion of their state bar association. We make no claim as to approval for other states unless stated differently.

General Requirement
(as listed on the Florida Bar website)

1. What is CLER?

CLER, or Continuing Legal Education Requirement, was adopted by the Supreme Court of Florida in 1988 and requires all members of The Florida Bar to continue their legal education.

2. What is the requirement?

Over a 3 year period, each member must complete 30 hours, 5 of which are in the area of ethics, professionalism, substance abuse, or mental illness awareness.

3. Where may I find information on CLER?

Rule 6-10 of the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar sets out the requirement. All the rules may be found in the directory issue of The Florida Bar Journal.

Attorney Specific Requirements

Attorneys are required to complete 30 hours of CLE in each 3 year reporting period. 10 hours per year. If a member completes more than 30 hours, during any reporting cycle, the excess credits cannot be carried over to the next reporting cycle. Of those 30 hours, 5 hours in each of the following subjects are mandatory:

  • Legal Ethics: 5 hours of the 30 required must be in ethics as they apply to the legal profession.
  • Professionalism: 5 hours can be in the area of professionalism as it pertains to the legal profession.
  • Substance Abuse: Substance abuse, including alcohol is a major problem among professionals. 5 hours of substance abuse awareness is offered as part of the 30 hours of CLE for attorneys.
  • Mental Illness Awareness: We have searched high and low, and have not found ANY courses on Mental Illness Awareness. We have assembled 5 hours of materials that will give you a unique outlook on those people who are suffering from mental illness and the unique situations that surround these individuals.
