DCBA Two-Day CLE

When: Wednesday, February 12, 2025 and Thursday, February 13, 2025
Where: Virtual Via Zoom 
 

The Durham County Bar Association CLE Topics & Speakers are below. Remember that the CLE runs for two days, Wednesday and Thursday, providing you with the opportunity to earn as many as 12 hours of credit across multiple required categories including Technology and Ethics. We typically offer a professional wellbeing course in November and in some cases we'll include that hour again here. For 2025, we do not have the PWB hour at this event.
