Past CLE

The Professional Liability Fund offers CLE programs and materials to lawyers whose principal offices are in Oregon. If you do not pay a PLF assessment because your principal office is outside of Oregon or because you are not in private practice in Oregon, we offer the option of live streaming or downloadable programs. The written materials are provided electronically, and you can access the program materials on each program details page.

MCLE Self-Reporting

The PLF does not send CLE order data to the Oregon State Bar. Use the OSB Contemporaneous Individual Screening Log to track and report your CLE screening activity.

For information on MCLE reporting requirements, visit the OSB website. Program dates, titles, and other details, including OSB MCLE program numbers, are available by selecting the program titles below. Alternatively, download our list of previously offered live programs and video replays.
