What CLE and Events Does The Mississippi Bar Host?

Updated

The Mississippi Bar hosts continuing legal education (CLE) programming and other events for attorneys, with a mix of in-person and virtual sessions listed on its events calendar. The site's homepage highlights upcoming events and links to a full calendar where you can view details and register. If you are looking for Mississippi CLE credit or want to attend bar-hosted programs, the events section is the starting point.

Where CLE and Events Appear on msbar.org

The Mississippi Bar's homepage includes an Upcoming Events section alongside News & Announcements. The site navigation also lists CLE as a main menu item, giving members a direct entry point to continuing legal education information.

From the homepage, you can:

  • Scan the Upcoming Events block for dated sessions
  • Select View Calendar to see the full schedule
  • Use the CLE menu item for continuing legal education content

Examples of Upcoming Events

The homepage lists specific events with dates, times, and formats. Examples shown include:

Event Date / Time Format
Bridge the Gap: Rule 3 New Lawyer Program (Part 1) Oct 2, 8:00 am – 3:30 pm In-person (location not specified on homepage)
The Top Ten Trust Accounting Blunders: How to Avoid a Grievance Oct 6, 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm Virtual Event
New Retiree Reemployment Law Oct 7, 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm Virtual Event

These examples show the range of programming: a multi-hour new lawyer program, a one-hour ethics/trust accounting session, and a one-hour substantive law update. Several events are labeled Virtual Event, so remote attendance is available for at least some sessions.

How to Check the Full Schedule and Register

  1. Go to msbar.org.

  3. Select View Calendar (or the View More Events link) to open the full events calendar.
