CLE Units
CLE units and programs are currently being developed to meet both the professional and real needs of legal practitioners.
CLE units and programs may be delivered face-to-face but will normally be fully online and thus able to be undertaken by practitioners anywhere in Australia. Where applicable, units will be designed to meet the requirements of a specific state or governing body. Prospective participants are advised to contact their relevant professional body for advice on whether CLE units meet the relevant specific eligibility criteria.
