providing education and networking opportunities for regulators in Mandatory CLE juridictions since 1986.
CLEreg also connects members via a listserv that provides invaluable day-to-day support from peers. We
currently represent 46 mandatory CLE jurisdictions and welcome new and existing regulatory jurisdictions
from around the world to join us. In most jurisdictions, regulatory duties include program accreditation and
