Need to file your CLE Form 1?
WisBar's My CLE Tracker makes reporting CLE credits easier
Need to file your CLE Form 1? The My CLE Tracker feature on WisBar™, the State Bar Web site, automatically tracks credits earned through State Bar CLE programs. Credits earned from other providers can be manually added.
All active Wisconsin-licensed attorneys must file a CLE Form 1 with the Board of Bar Examiners (BBE) biennially. Attorneys admitted to practice in odd-number years should have received the 2006 - 07 CLE Form 1 in October. The deadline for completing all required coursework is Dec. 31, 2007. Attorneys admitted to practice in 2007 do not need to report CLE credits until 2009.
"While My CLE Tracker automatically tracks the seminar name and the date attended, members must fill in the location," says State Bar CLE Director Bill Connors. "As an added safeguard, you cannot print the My CLE Tracker unless you include seminar locations.
"This is the first reporting period in which our members may report on-demand seminars for up to 10 CLE credits," says Connors. "On-demand programs are CLE seminars that previously were presented live or in another format and have been reapproved, allowing members to earn CLE credit for programs viewed over the Internet. My CLE Tracker now includes check-off boxes to report on-demand and webcast seminars."
Members also can manually add credits earned from other providers to My CLE Tracker. Once complete, the form can be printed and attached to the BBE CLE Form 1.
