The Connecticut Bar Association Chooses
LegalSpan to Enhance Legal Education Options
LegalSpan is pleased to announce its partnership with the the
Connecticut Bar Association to provide streaming video of continuing legal
education lectures via the Internet.
The Connecticut Bar Association Online CLE
Catalog is located at: http://www.legalspan.com/ctbar/
and will initially feature seminars from LegalSpan's Seminar Sharing program but
will begin to identify Connecticut specific seminars to be placed in the Catalog
as the market matures.
"The effort we're making at the Connecticut Bar
Association to offer members a variety of legal education options is greatly
enhanced by our partnership with LegalSpan. At a time when lawyers are busier
than ever, the LegalSpan online experience will allow our members to access
CLE at any time, at home or at the office. It will also allow the CBA to
integrate our own seminars into online presentations, as well as access the
library of LegalSpan seminars."
Donald E. Williams, Jr.
Director of Professional Development
Connecticut Bar Association
"Non-mandatory
bar associations, such as the Connecticut Bar, provide a unique opportunity for
an online CLE provider to begin to pull apart the difference between providing CLE credits
and the more subtle aspects of providing education via the Internet. If
online CLE is to continue to grow, we need to develop an educational
system capable of success without the assistance of a compliance deadline.
Because of the reputation and success of the Connecticut Bar Association they
are a great partner to experiment with in this regard. Whether it is
ultimately the inclusion of enhanced interactivity, the integration of legal
research, or a combination of different improvements, we are committed to
continuing the evolution of our system to embrace the needs of our partners."

The Connecticut Bar Association will also be one
of the first associations to showcase our
newest 10 minute demonstration video provided by the Texas Center for Legal
Ethics. This free demonstration entitled "The Evolving Role of Corporate
Counsel in the New Business Environment" was professionally produced by
Business Professionals Network in their studio in Dallas, Texas and features a
very interesting discussion of business ethics in relation to the recent
Sarbanes-Oxley legislation. This demonstration video will also be available to all
affiliates in the shared seminar section of the administrative area.
