For more than 20 years, the NBA has provided government attorneys exceptional CLE. We look forward to continuing to provide you with high quality programs focused on government practice issues.
This year we are excited to offer a hybrid program for the first time ever, with the option to attend in person at the Tennessee Tower, or virtually via Zoom. These seminars will offer six hours of Government-specific CLE programming on Friday, October 7, and six hours—including three hours of ethics—on Friday, December 9. Topics will include updates on TN & US case law, public records, handling conflicts of interest, the annual Ridley Staley report, and more!
