CPDonline - VIDEOS 24/7
FOLA has partnered with CPDonline.ca to provide Ontario's law association members access to their extensive cpd library for just $399.00 per year. All their videos are fully accredited and their vast array of content is available 24/7.
As a bonus, CPDOnline will pay Law Associations $100 per association subscriber - RENEWALS INCLUDED!
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A FULL YEAR OF 24/7/365 CPD!
REMINDER:
All lawyers who have a CPD obligation for 2019, and who do not complete and/or report their CPD Hours through the Law Society Portal by December 31, 2021, will be charged a late reporting fee of $200, in addition to being subject to administrative suspension.
Don't let that message catch you off guard!
The Law Society no longer makes calls to remind licensees about administrative obligations. You should visit CPD the Portal regularly to view important documents, upcoming deadlines, and keep your email and other contact information current.
