Multiple licenses—which one do you need?

Depending on if you’re watching by yourself or with a group, we have the right license for you. 

Multiple Licenses e-learning Site - Step-by-Step Instructions and Troubleshooting

You’ll need a primary license to access the seminar. You can buy the additional licenses for your colleagues in your account in a separate transaction with PayPal. Each self-paced online seminar has its additional-viewer license tuition listed.

If you’re watching in a seminar in multiple locations, each location needs a primary license (that covers one person there) and then additional-viewer licenses for everyone joining to watch with the primary-license holder in that location.

If you’re an additional view, you don’t need your own account since you’ll be watching with the primary-license holder who has an account. The primary-license holder controls the seminar and course materials.

Licensing Terms

An important note from Bryan A. Garner

I’m excited to be a part of your legal-writing education, but before you start your program, we have a few legal bits to cover:

Terms of use

  • You’re receiving this course-material packet for purchasing the appropriate license for the seminar.
  • You, and only you, are allowed to use this course-material packet, its contents and associated contents, for your personal use.
  • You’re allowed unrestricted access to print, backup, copy, and use this course-material packet—again, for your personal use.

Limited-Use License

  • Unless LawProse grants explicit permission in writing, you cannot distribute this course-material packet, or its contents and associated contents, to anybody else, whether offline or online. This prohibition, of course, includes modifying the source file and then distributing it.
  • Unless LawProse grants explicit permission in writing, resale of the work within this course-material packet, or any portion of it is prohibited. Online or other republication of any of its contents is prohibited.

Violation of this License may result in immediate termination of your seminar license and may result in legal action for injunction, damages, or both.

Thank you for continuing the LawProse tradition of the rules we all learned in kindergarten: (1) say “please” and “thank you,” (2) everything nice and neat, and (3) be a good person and follow the honor code.

Best wishes, 
Bryan A. Garner

Course Description, Seminar Launch Icon e-learning Site - Step-by-Step Instructions and Troubleshooting
  1. A new page will appear with the start page. To the left is the content tree that lists what’s included in this seminar module. (This content-tree inventory is also included in the course-description document.)
Content Tree e-learning Site - Step-by-Step Instructions and Troubleshooting

The course materials are in PDF form so you may download them to use during the seminar.

*For multiple-part seminars, you’ll need to download the course materials for each part.

Certificates of Completion.

You can access your Certificates for your completed courses on the site under My Certificates in the menu.

Certificates will issue after you complete the seminar. If your seminar requires quizzes and keywords (listed in the content tree), then you’ll need to successfully complete those before the certificate will issue.

The certificate lists your name as the account holder (primary-license holder). If you’re taking this program with additional-viewer-license holders, you can still use this certificate and replace the name by hand. 

LawProse does not certify attendance by additional viewers since we cannot verify seminar completion and so we do not send out certificates for them.

CLE-reporting documents.

Most CLE applications require specific seminar information. Much of this is listed in the seminar’s course description. 

You can access this description in two places: 

  1. On the seminar’s course page on our e-learning site, and 
  2. On the seminar’s course page on www.lawprose.org.

You may also need the Instructor’s CV. Professor Garner’s CV follows this page.
