West Virginia Continuing Legal Education (WVCLE), the premiere provider of continuing legal education in West Virginia, will partner with LegalSpan to give West Virginia State Bar members and WVU Alumni world-wide 24/7 access to WVCLE continuing legal education seminars. The WVCLE catalog, to be released in early May, will initially house more than 20 seminars with more being added monthly.

The WVCLE catalog will be located at http://www.legalspan.com/wvcle

WVCLE will add to this collection through LegalSpan's Seminar Sharing Program on an ongoing basis as appropriate programs are selected from LegalSpan's national providers and other affiliate bar associations.

Because of our pending compliance deadline, we felt we needed to get our Online CLE Catalog up and running very quickly. We expected to spend months planning and implementing our site, but with the help of LegalSpan we were up and running literally before the ink on the contract was dry.

We were able to establish a full blown CLE catalog with more than 20 online CLE seminars in less than a week!

WVCLE videotapes most of their CLE programs, and this affiliation will give other LegalSpan affiliates access to the large number of professionally produced CLE seminars. LegalSpan affiliates can watch for WVCLE seminars showing up in the shared seminar section of your administrative area in the coming weeks.

LegalSpan has had tremendous results from its Update on the latest cases and issues pending before the United States Supreme Court which it obtains through its affiliation with the CLE Options Network and the Georgetown University Law School Supreme Court Institute. We have found a direct relationship between users who view this free program and sells of additional seminars. WVCLE will also be using the quarterly update to give its viewers and introduction to online seminars and also provide a valuable source of information about pending Supreme Court Cases.
