The Ohio State Bar Association and LegalSpan partner to provide online CLE for Ohio Attorneys. 

In order to better serve its membership, the Ohio State Bar has partnered with LegalSpan to provide online CLE to Ohio Lawyers. Courses are pre-approved for credit by the Ohio Supreme Court and Ohio attorneys can earn six hours online. Improving delivery options to meet the needs of the today's changing business culture is of utmost importance, says Ohio State Bar Association Director of Marketing, Brad LaGusch.

"The added functionality, responsiveness of the LegalSpan team, and proven track record of relationships with other state bars is the reason we selected LegalSpan to provide our online CLE infrastructure. We are especially interested in addressing the needs of our attorneys across the state who may not be able to attend our live seminars. Also, the consortium of other bar associations adding their seminars to the mix may help us fill gaps in our program areas to provide a very robust catalog of options for our members. 

"Probably most exciting is that, with our existing Casemaker functionality and the inclusion of the LegalSpan service, we have the opportunity to provide immediate access to changes in the law through online streaming video with links for additional research - built-in through integrated Casemaker functionality. The ability to do instant and free research as users are watching online CLE seminars provides an educational system with unmatched power and functionality." 

Brad Lagusch, Director of Marketing, Ohio State Bar Association 

"LegalSpan is also very excited about the prospect of working with OSBA to broaden the possible scope of online CLE by giving users the ability to conduct additional research on topics of interest through Casemaker. Users have often commented that the ability to stop a seminar and read materials in depth was a valuable aspect of online CLE. Through this partnership, we have the opportunity to extend this concept and allow users go even more deeply into subjects of interest to them."

John Davis, President & CEO, LegalSpan 

Providing online CLE for more than 25 bar associations, LegalSpan is the nation's leading Legal Internet broadcasting company. LegalSpan provides a seamless and fully integrated online CLE catalog that enables associations in the legal, accounting and banking professions to provide the highest quality educational content on the Internet.
