Continuing Legal Education (CLE) Sessions
Many of the sessions are designed to qualify for CLE credit in those states that have mandatory CLE. All Summit CLE sessions have been approved by the Tennessee Commission on Continuing Legal Education, for a maximum of 13.75 hours of credit. Tennessee is the only state where NCSL has sought accreditation. Self-application materials will be made available. There is a $99 administration fee for this service.
2019 NCSL Legislative Summit Terms and Conditions
Online meeting registration generally requires payment by credit card. However, legislators and legislative staff may register online without a credit card guarantee, since in most cases, NCSL can bill your state. Credit card payment is required for the CLE administrative fee, tours, youth and guest registration fees.
For the agenda and other program information, go to the NCSL Legislative Summit website. For questions regarding registration, contact registration@ncsl.org.
