Summer training is entirely by Zoom webinar. 
 

Continuing education

Training is approved for six hours of continuing legal education (CLE), continuing judicial education (CJE), and continuing education unit (CEU) credit including two hours of CJE and CLE ethics. 

CLE, CJE, and CEU credit is awarded by session. You must participate in the entire session and answer poll questions to earn credit. You will not earn credit if you connect only by audio in Zoom, or if you watch it from someone else’s screen.
