Mandatory Continuing Legal Education

Please Note: The LSBA does not administer MCLE transcripts, please visit the Committee on Mandatory Continuing Legal Education web site for more information and to check your MCLE Transcripts.

The Committee on Mandatory Continuing Legal Education was created by the Louisiana Supreme Court to administer a compliance program designed to foster attorney competence, ethical and professional behavior through education.

It is of primary importance to the members of the Louisiana State Bar Association  and to the public that attorneys licensed to practice law in Louisiana keep current on changes and developments through continued legal education. The Rules for Continuing Legal Education establish the minimum requirements for continuing legal education. Compliance with the continuing legal education requirements of the Rules for Continuing Legal Education is necessary to maintain a member's license to practice law in this State.

The Louisiana State Bar Association offers a variety of seminars on a wide range of legal topics. Enrolling in them will help you stay competitive and keep up with the ever-changing laws and help maintain your educational requirements.
The Continuing Legal Education Program Committee sponsors more than 20 programs each year, ranging from 15-hour credit seminars to one-hour ethics classes.
