About CLE

For more than four decades, the Center for Continuing Legal Education operated as a collection of individual programs. Each program is headed by a chair or planning committee.

The CLE Advisory Board held its first meeting in February of 1998. Since then, it supported the creation of two divisions (the Institute for Litigation Studies and Law & Technology), both of which have been created by the Board of Trustees .
