I don’t always know exactly who’s reading this blog, but those non-lawyers of you may not know that Illinois recently became a state where mandatory continuing legal education is required for all active attorneys. So now everyone’s sort running around as to who will be offering the various seminars, costs, ect.
The Chicago Bar Association is offering what I think is the best deal going through its CLE-Advantage program (I have no affiliation with the CBA other than just being a regular, old member). In essence for $125 you get unlimited CLE for 1.5 years and also free usage of any DVDs or tapes of seminars. The typical CBA CLE is from 2-6pm on weekdays.
Compare this to the your IICLE stuff or other for-profit places where you’re always looking at $250 minimum for their seminars…I haven’t seen anything that beats it. So take it for what it’s worth.
