April 01, 2020 - The Knowledge Group is updating its bundled Online Continuing Legal Education (CLE) offerings following the changes in CLE requirements within several states. Most states are amending their rules regarding live and self-study programs as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic. In response to the pandemic, The Knowledge Group now maintains a live blog, which aggregates these updates, and continues to modify their Self-Study (On-Demand) State bundles.
The Knowledge Group’s new CLE Bundles now include more courses that enable attorneys to fulfill their entire credit requirements as easily as possible. For example, the Georgia online bundle, which previously included 6 credits, now allows lawyers to fulfill 12 CLE hours. They are also reducing the rate of their on-demand (self-study) state bundles by 15% until further notice.
Other states offered with modified bundles include Delaware, Florida, Texas, New Jersey, New York, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
A Live Blog
As of this writing, the majority of states have already waived their live in-person CLE requirements and have extended reporting deadlines. Further changes to reporting deadlines and continuing education credits are expected as the outbreak continues to unfold.
Founder Tom LaPointe says, “We’ve launched a live blog that we will continue to update with the changing continuing education requirements on a state-by-state basis. We are seeing that a number of CLE authorities nationwide are adjusting requirements and deadlines, so we want to keep our users updated with the latest changes as they are available in one, easy-to-read article.”
He adds, “Our priority remains the same. We want to make it easy for our users to meet their continuing education credit requirements with the best content we can possibly provide. We also want our customers to remain safe and well while doing so.”
