There are many convenient options available for busy professionals that are fast, easy and convenient that many attorneys may not even know about.
What many professionals may or may not know is the fact that just about every live presentation and seminar of the state Bar is either put on audio tape or video tape for Florida CLE professionals, and most of the courses are accompanied by a course book too for reference and convenience. These all can be ordered in addition to or in lieu of a professional attending these seminars. The Florida CLE credit hours can be earned by listening to the audio tape or by viewing the video tape, which is incredibly convenient for professionals. However, if this is something you might be interested in you should know that credit hours cannot be earned just from ordering the book. You must order the tapes, either audio or video for your Florida CLE credits to be earned.
