Dear Friends and Colleagues, As we head into September and everyone settles back into their post‑summer routines, I’m glad to share this month’s lineup of Free CLE Webinars. They’re ready for you to explore, use, and pass along to your networks. Every listing is free to attend, though credit approval varies by jurisdiction. If your state isn’t listed, you may still be able to self‑apply depending on local rules.

If you spot a new program I should add, I’d love to hear about it. The calendar is a living resource, updated throughout the month at http://4freeCLE.blogspot.com.

Here’s to a strong start to fall and another month of accessible learning.
