Event Calendar

Looking for CLE programming? All National Conferences and CLE Webinars are posted on the event calendar.


National Conferences

The Federal Bar Association hosts national conferences throughout the year. CLE information (if applicable) is prominently posted on the event webpage and emailed out to attendees in advance of the meeting. View the conference’s webpage for details on the amount of credit requested and any known accreditation details. Conferences are posted on the event calendar.

CLE qualifications vary by state/jurisdiction and the FBA takes every measure to collaborate with presenters to ensure approval. Accrediting agencies typically decide whether a program qualifies for CLE credit in their jurisdiction 4-8 weeks after the program application is submitted. Please Note: For many live events, credit approval is not received prior to the program.

The FBA partners with ConferenceAdit LLC to track and report CLE credit for national conferences. Attendees are responsible for uploading their state bar information and tracking attendance through a dedicated webpage, issued in advance of the conference. Attendees will be instructed to check in and out of each panel to timestamp attendance. Following the conference, personalized certificates will be issued via email.
