CLA/CP CLE Credit Reporting Form

This form is only for use by CLAs or CPs in order to provide evidence of the CLE hours required to maintain the CLA or CP credential.

Do not mail, e-mail, or fax additional documentation when completing this form on-line.  If you print this form to submit CLE hours to NALA Headquarters by mail, e-mail, or fax, please do not send supporting documentation -- only send the CLE Reporting form unless you are sending a special request under Categories D or E which must be submitted in writing to NALA Headquarters with backup documentation.

The Certifying Board reserves the right to adjust CLE submissions in accordance with the current CLE requirements.

When counting hours for a seminar or workshop, count only the actual hours of legal instruction that qualify for credit.  No credit will be given for lunch, breaks, registration, and social periods.

To ensure the accuracy of CLE entries, the NALA Certifying Board reserves the right to audit credit submissions for CLAs or CPs by requesting all backup documentation.  If you are selected for an audit, all backup documentation must be provided to NALA Headquarters within 60 days of notice of the audit. 

A CLA/CP who fails to submit satisfactory evidence of attendance or completion of a CLE event or course within sixty (60) days of the date of the audit notice is subject to discipline as set forth in the Rules for Disciplinary Proceedings published by NALA. The NALA Certifying Board has the right to refuse to grant CLE credit for unconfirmed credits.

DOCUMENT RETENTION: A CLA/CP shall maintain satisfactory evidence of attendance or completion of a CLE event or course for which credit has not been confirmed for a minimum of one year from the date of acknowledgment ("Acknowledgment") of the credit by NALA. Acknowledgment shall be evidenced by NALA posting the credit as "unconfirmed" on the CLA/CP's CLE record (the "Recap"), which Recap shall be sent to the CLA/CP.
