CLE Credits:
The George Washington University is registered with the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) as a sponsor of continuing professional education on the National Registry of CPE Sponsors. State boards of accountancy have final authority on the acceptance of individual courses for CPE credit.
The George Washington University will submit applications to the state bar associations for continuing legal education credits for the states of the participants attending and seeking CLE credit. Since crediting is decided by the local bar associations, no advance assurance can be given that credit will be granted in all cases. Please contact your state's CLE administrative office to determine whether your state will accept credit for this event.
