CLE Information: On the seminar day

At 7:00 a.m. Central Time, two hours before the seminar begins, you’ll receive a reminder email from us. It will have the login details to make it easy for you. And it’ll be near the top of your inbox to make it easy to find.

The reminder will also include the attendance-verification form and another copy of the seminar-information packet. There are copies in the calendar invitation, in the calendar-invitation email, in the address-verification email, and a hardcopy packed with your coursebook.

Goodies you’ll find in the seminar-information packet:

• Guides and instructions for signing into the classroom;
• Attendance-verification form;
• New York Attorney Affirmation form;
• Course description and timed agenda (including listing times for breaks and lunch);
• Certificate of Attendance; and
• Quick introduction to Professor Garner.

Attendance-verification form. Why is this important?

Professor Garner will announce and show six code words during the seminar. There are spaces for each of these words on the attendance-verification form. To receive full credit for attendance/CLE credit, you’ll need to send back the form with all the information filled in.

Even if you don’t need CLE credit, you may need attendance verification for your employer. The only way we can provide that information to your employer is if we have this attendance-verification form filled out and timely submitted.

Please return the form by the deadline listed on the form.

If you miss the deadline, your state’s CLE agency may allow you to directly report your credits. Please see the CLE-reporting chart you’ll receive after the seminar for more details. LawProse isn’t responsible for reporting/logging attendance or handling other CLE matters if your attendance form is returned after the deadline.

New York Attorney Affirmation form

Attorneys licensed in New York who want to report the credit for Skills credit, then you’ll also need to turn in the NY Attorney Affirmation form with the code words filled out by the deadline.

You’ll receive a New York Approved-Jurisdiction Policy CLE packet for you to use in your self-reporting.

If you miss the deadline, NY CLE may allow you to directly report your credits. Please see the CLE-reporting chart you’ll receive after the seminar for more details. LawProse isn’t responsible for reporting/logging attendance or handling other CLE matters if your attendance form is returned after the deadline.
