How to Get CLE Credits & Prove Your Attendance
- CLE credits were requested during registration, which also allowed you to provide your bar number(s) and jurisdiction(s). If you are not sure whether you did so, or if you would like to add or update your bar info, please contact anna.williamson@rila.org to do so at any time.
- CLE-eligible sessions (general + non-conversational breakouts) will have a poll pop-up sometime during the middle of each session. Be sure to respond to this as many states require proof that you actively listened to the session.
- After the conference, we will send you your personalized Certificate of Attendance(s). Depending on the jurisdiction, it may take some time before you receive your certificate(s).
