Other helpful information

Apply for CLE credit

According to Rule 5.A.9 of the MN Board of Continuing Legal Education’s CLE Rules:

(9) A lawyer shall not receive credit for any course attended before being admitted to practice law in Minnesota, but one so admitted may receive credit of one hour for each 60 minutes actually spent in attendance, for attending for credit or as an auditor, a regular course offered by a law school approved by the American Bar Association.

Those applying for CLE credit will need to complete an affidavit of attendance and submit it to the Minnesota Board of Continuing Legal Education. You will not be able to use the online affidavit to apply for credit for attending these courses. Please note that because it is required, the new fee for submitting manual affidavits does not apply. There will not be an event ID associated with any of the Mitchell courses. Instead, simply put down the course name. William Mitchell is the Sponsoring Agency.  You are responsible for tracking the number of hours you attend class.
