Happy holidays from Virginia CLE. | Our offices will be closed December 24 – January 1.

Methods for transferring credits outside Virginia are outlined below. Virginia CLE® charges a $35 administrative fee to process out-of-state credits for you. If you are attending a live on site seminar, please complete the Out-of-State Credit Transfer form at registration and pay the $35 fee to the site coordinator.

If you would like to transfer credits to another state for a webcast, telephone, or on demand seminar, or have any other questions regarding out-of-state credit requirements, please contact Kelly Spruill at vacle@vacle.org, or call (800) 979-8253, ext. 146.

MCLE rules vary by state. Please be sure to consult the regulations for each state before assuming that the credits will be approved.

Colorado

45 hours per three-year period including 7 hours ethics. Reporting date: December 31 of 3rd year.    Colorado is a self-reporting state. Most lawyers complete their MCLE requirements by attending live CLE programs or on-demand pre-recorded programs that have been accredited by our Office. If you attend a CLE program or complete an on-demand CLE program, the sponsor of that program WILL NOT report your attendance or the completion of an on-demand program to our Office. You must certify and submit notice of your attendance to a CLE program or completion of an on-demand program to your online transcript at www.cletrack.coloradosupremecourt.com. The easiest way to report your attendance at a program or completion of an on-demand program is to have the Colorado Program ID before you begin entry. All providers should be able to give you the program ID issued by our Office when the program was accredited.

Additional Information:

Generally speaking, when attorneys apply for out-of-state credit themselves, they will need to submit a brochure, a biography of the speaker(s) (if not included in the brochure), and for some states, the written materials. The Uniform Application for Accreditation is available at http://www.cleusa.com/uniformapp.pdf.

Further questions about out-of-state credit should be directed to Kelly Spruill at kelly.spruill@vacle.org, or 800-979-8253.
