Accreditation and CLE Rules for Washington
National Academy of Continuing Legal Education has been approved for accredited sponsor status by the Washington State Board of Mandatory Continuing Legal Education. All courses offered by the National Academy of Continuing Legal Education have been directly approved by the WSBA.
Washington attorneys are required to take 45 credit hours every 3 years including 6 credit hours of Ethics and 15 credit hours in the area of Law and Legal Procedure. The reporting cycle is from January 1st through December 31st every 3 years and each member must certify compliance by Feb 1st.
Washington attorneys can earn all 45 CLE credit hours with us using our DVDs, Audio CDs, Online & iOS/Android App courses.
WSBA members are divided into three MCLE reporting groups based upon year of admission.
Group 1: Admitted through 1975, 1991, 1994, 1997, 2000, 2003, 2006, 2009, 2012, 2015, 2016, 2019, 2022

Washington attorneys may carry over a maximum of 15 credits including a maximum of 2 Ethics credits for a period of 36 months.
Newly admitted members are exempt from reporting CLE credits for the year of their admission and the following calendar year. For example, if you were admitted in 2018, you would not report for the reporting period of 2016-2018 even though you are in Group 3. You would first report at the end of the 2019-2021 reporting period. Members admitted in 2019 will first report at the end of the 2020–2022 reporting period. When new members report at the end of their first reporting period, they may claim all CLE credits earned on or after their date of admission to the WSBA.
