Lawyers can claim one CLE credit for every 60 minutes of attendance (either for credit or as an auditor) at a regular course offered by a law school approved by the American Bar Association. The attendance must have occurred after the lawyer was admitted in Minnesota. See Rule 5A(9) for additional information.
