The Iowa Bar partners with LegalSpan to provide online CLE for Iowa Attorneys.
Quality continuing legal education can now be done with a few "clicks of the mouse" for Iowa attorneys. The Iowa State Bar Association has partnered with LegalSpan to provide online CLE for its members. Courses are pre-approved for credit by the Iowa Supreme Court Commission on Continuing Legal Education. The commission requires that online programs provide verification of attendance, which the LegalSpan system can easily do.
"We're very excited to provide this format of CLE for our members. We feel we can offer our members much more than we ever could otherwise. Cost was a major issue for us and most providers made it cost prohibitive to put a system together. LegalSpan had a system up and running in less than two weeks and within the first week, we had 30 hits on the online catalog.
"Also, by using online seminars, we are able to provide high quality, advanced CLE seminars for our members who designate a specific area of practice and require extra education hours. We select from national providers like CLE Options and NITA, as well as the other LegalSpan affiliates and once the Commission approves the courses, we have a nice catalog of choices for our members."
