Check the chart below to see if your state accepts webinars for continuing legal education credit.

Print the Application for Accreditation from your confirmation email or the individual webinar website.

Mail the application along with the agenda and Certificate to your state bar.

To calculate credit hours, determine whether your state recognizes the 60 or 50-minute hour (*50-minute state). Divide minutes that you participated in by 60 or 50. E.g. For participation in an entire 90 minute Webinar, 1.5 credits would be earned for a 60-minute state and 1.8 credits for a 50-minute state.

requirements apply to newly-admitted attorneys. Compliance Deadline: Even-numbered years A-M reporting group; odd-numbered years N-Z reporting group 6/30 to complete credits 7/31 to report completion or exemption. Distance Learning Credit: No distance learning credit limit. Accreditation of any recorded course is initially two years. Accreditation may be extended for additional two-year terms if the course remains current in terms of content. Also see Rule 795, available on the Board's web site, www.mcleboard.org. DVD, VHS, Audio, Podcast: Course needs to be accredited for Illinois MCLE credit in order for an attorney to earn Illinois MCLE credit for participating in the course. For in-house courses, all courses (including recorded replays) need at least 5 lawyers as learners participating in the course at the same time. Interactivity: All courses, including those using recorded formats, need to have interactivity as a key component of the course. Internet on-demand: Approved. Self-Study Credit: No. The meaning of the term "self-study" varies for attorneys, course providers and other MCLE states. Because the term "self-study" is not used in the Illinois MCLE Rules and its meaning can vary widely, the MCLE Board does not use it in describing an attorney's MCLE options. Lawyers and course providers frequently ask whether recorded courses can be accredited. A course provider may apply to accredit courses that are recorded using various electronic formats, including online on-demand courses, DVD's, CD's and MP3's. But, under the Illinois MCLE Rules, all CLE courses, including electronically recorded courses, must include interactivity as a key component of the course. Teaching Credit: Yes.
