"A bar association or professional association meeting may qualify for CLE credits if substantive law, matters of practice, professionalism, diversity issues, mental illness and addiction issues, civility, or legal ethics are discussed. The discussion must have significant intellectual, educational or practical content, and its primary objective must be to increase each participant's professional competence as an attorney and must deal primarily with matters related to the practice of law. (Rule 795(d)(3).)More:
Credits may be obtained at such meetings, whether or not a meal is provided. The time for any meal offered in conjunction with a course or activity may not be included in the CLE credit hour time. Whenever a meal is offered in conjunction with a course or activity, no less than 15 minutes must be allocated to the meal with no MCLE credit for meal time.
Such course or activity is eligible for no more than one hour of credit per bar or professional association meeting. If an attorney has questions as to whether the attorney attended a meeting of a bar association or professional association, please contact the bar association or professional association directly as these organizations are to keep their own attendance records.
Bar or professional association meetings are a nontraditional CLE activity under Rule 795(d)."
