CLE Information:

The AAA has not applied for and is not offering CLE credits in any jurisdiction for this program. Registrants desiring CLE credit (or those professionals in a discipline other than the practice of law) will be able to request a certificate of attendance, which may be used for self-pursuit of CLE credit in their jurisdictions. In so doing, the AAA suggests that you confirm applications requirements for this type of course with the appropriate licensing body.
