IN CLE Reporting Procedure: The Knowledge Group submits attendance report for approved courses to Indiana Commission on CLE.

For Newly Admitted Attorneys: Newly-admitted attorneys in the state of Indiana (attorneys within the first three-year cycle) are required to attend at least 6 hours of approved CLE per year and at least 36 hours of approved CLE per three-year cycle. Also, newly admitted attorneys are required to attend an approved six-hour “Applied Professionalism” program in lieu of the ethics requirement in their first three-year cycle.

The Supreme Court of Indiana permanently amended the continuing education rules regarding limits on distance education. Indiana lawyers can satisfy all or a part of their CLE requirements through distance learning approved courses.
