High quality, reasonably priced CLE opportunities: Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Indiana, Nebraska, Texas, and other states.
I am a Continuing Legal Education (CLE) provider in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and other states. I concentrate on having lively and relevant live courses, telephone conference call courses, and Wisconsin podcast courses. My courses are affordable, are routinely approved for CLE credit, and are high-quality programs. Many live programs are scheduled on evenings and weekends. I've been in practice for over 25 years, so most of these programs come from my own experience. However, I am always looking for presenters, so if you have an idea for an interesting program, please contact me.
I currently have the following live programs scheduled:
Under Wisconsin Court Rule 31.05(5), Wisconsin lawyers may claim up to 10.0 CLE credit hours for approved on-demand programs. Since New York has automatic reciprocity with Wisconsin, New York attorneys can also take Wisconsin programs for CLE credit.

Minnesota attorneys may now complete all of their credits with "on demand" programs. Therefore, all of these programs are eligible for Minnesota credit. You no longer need to take "live" programs. However, some states might require live credits, and the following programs qualify as "live" programs in most states:
I am currently offering the following programs which can be used without restriction for your 45 hour requirement:
On August 28, 2020, the Iowa Supreme Court permanently removed the limit on "unmoderated" CLE hours. Going forward, Iowa attorneys may, if they wish, complete their entire CLE requirement with "on demand" programs rather than attending live programs. The old "ethics bienium" is also gone. Iowa attorneys must earn one credit of ethics every calendar year. In addition, Iowa attorneys must earn one credit in one of two categories. This can be either "attorney wellness" or "diversity and inclusion." (For full information on the changes, see the frequently asked questions at the Iowa court website.
The following programs have all been approved for Iowa credit, and will allow you to complete your entire CLE requirement:
The following telephone conference call CLE's are being offered for Minnesota, Wisconsin, and/or Iowa credit.
I occasionally present free programs, which will be announced here. I will be presenting the following free online program in November:
Free one-credit live online program.
In addition to my programs, there are other providers in the Twin Cities who occasionally offer free programs, which are often quite good. Since these are a good way to finish needed credits, I have some of them listed here. These are all links to external sites:
Here are some other providers of inexpensive CLE programs:
Thank you for visiting my CLE page. Before you look at this page, please visit my blog for information on what's happening in Venezuela right now. The people of Venezuela are fighting for their freedom, and as lawyers, this should be a grave concern for us.
