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, 2019, will be charged a late reporting fee of $200, in addition to being subject to administrative suspension.

WANT TO CHECK OUT SOME RESOURCES?
Are you willing to invest your time and help others improve their professional competence?
CAN will provide you with resources, tools and training to ensure you are prepared for your Coach or Advisor sessions.
The Law Society will help you to help others while YOU develop your skills, and earn CPD Hours.
ARE YOU READY TO BE AN ADVISOR?
Do you have a question about a client file that would benefit from a phone call with a seasoned practitioner?
