CLE Speaker Application
Speaker Qualifications
Speakers only need to be willing and able to share their
legal knowledge and experience with their colleagues. The
keys to a successful presentation include learning objectives,
practical applications, use of visual aids, and preparation
of a speaker paper.
-
For compliance with CLE accreditation requirements,
all speakers must submit a written paper to supplement their
presentation. (If selected, AAJ Education staff will provide
paper guidelines.)
-
Lawyers must also be members in good standing
with both AAJ and their State Trial Lawyer Association
to speak at an AAJ program.
-
Speakers who teach at AAJ education programs
are volunteers. Speakers are responsible for all travel-related
expenses and, for conventions, speakers must pay the convention
registration fee.
Selection of Program Content Proposals
Proposals will be evaluated on the following criteria:
- Relevancy to AAJ members
- Practical application
- Timeliness of the subject matter/topic
If your proposal is selected, you will be contacted by AAJ
staff and provided with more detailed information including
guidelines for speaker papers. All proposals will be kept
on file in our faculty database for consideration at future
AAJ Education programs.
