Section membership is open to both members of the Alaska Bar Association and the public, offering numerous benefits to support your professional growth and development. By joining, you’ll gain access to resources such as continuing legal education (CLE) opportunities, networking with peers who share similar legal interests, updates on legislative and court actions, and participation in forums that address community and professional needs.
To help AK Bar members track CLE credits, we’ve provided a general section Certificate of Attendance for your use. Please remember, it is the member’s responsibility to track and report CLE credits. This form is designed to assist bar members in maintaining a personal record for the CLE credits earned by attending quality section meetings.
