CPD Information
BC | This course has been accredited for 1.0 Practice Management hour. Course name: Pride @ Work: Spotlight on the Legal Profession. Course number: N02122021.
ON | This program contains 1.0 hours of EDI Professionalism content.
QC | Please note, the concept of "recognition" or "accreditation" has been abolished. By doing this, the Barreau is trying to make it easier for lawyers to claim mandatory CLE credits without a formal accreditation process. It is now up to individual lawyers to determine the eligibility of a training activity and to declare the hours in their “Dossier de formation en ligne”.
