The D.C. Bar CLE Program is an accredited or recognized
sponsor in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado,
Delaware, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi,
Missouri, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, North
Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Carolina,
Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. The D.C.
Bar will apply for credit for individual courses in other
states, including Florida, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota,
Nevada, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Washington, and
Wyoming. All of the CLE courses listed on the D.C. Bar's
Web site qualify for New York credit. The D.C. Bar will
assist with applications to Arizona, Idaho, Kentucky,
Montana and Rhode Island, but attorneys must apply
individually for credit for courses and submit payment
directly to these states. For Pennsylvania credit, the
D.C. Bar will automatically pre-certify all courses
(except those on law office management) and pay the
Pennsylvania preaccreditation fees. Registrants will be
provided with the proper attendance certificates and must
submit both the form and their certification fees ($1.50
per credit hour) directly to Pennsylvania. Instructions
for individual course submissions are provided at each
class by the D.C. Bar CLE Program, along with attendance
certificates.

These activities (courses) have been approved for minimum
continuing legal education credit by the State Bar of
California. The D.C. Bar CLE Program certifies that these
activities conform to the standards for approved education
activities prescribed by the rules and regulations of the
State Bar of California governing minimum continuing legal
education.

Credit hours for courses are listed after the time of the
course (if credit hours are not listed, please call the
CLE Program at 202-626-3488). These hours are calculated
on a 60-minute hour. Breaks have already been deducted
from the time. However, some states (such as Pennsylvania)
round down to the nearest half hour.
