Bridging the Gap

 
The New York State Bar Association is pleased to offer newly admitted attorneys who upgrade their membership, complimentary registration to their choice of one of our two-day Bridging the Gap CLE programs presented throughout the year.
 
Transitional courses are designed to help newly admitted attorneys develop a foundation in the practical skills, techniques and procedures that are essential to the practice of law.
 
The NYSBA Bridging the Gap continuing legal education program offers 16.0 total credits. Newly admitted attorneys can satisfy all of their annual MCLE requirements by attending this two-day program, which is ideal for “bridging the gap” between law school and the realities of practicing law in New York State.
