About Spring CLE

The ACBA Spring CLE trip has been a rewarding event for over 50 years since nearly the establishment of the ACBA.  We have gone to places like Washington, DC, New Orleans, Key West, Las Vegas, Atlantis and several California, Canadian and Mexican destinations, to name but a few.  This year's trip is to festive New Orleans, Louisiana.  Attendees and their guests make career long friends while bonding over CLEs, meals, parties and taking in the culture of the destination cities.  Having mentors, people to ask questions of, potential employers, referral sources and faces you recognize in the legal community are essential.

This popular educational trip begins with a meet & greet President’s Welcome Reception on Wednesday evening. CLE seminars are on Thursday, Friday and Saturday mornings with optional group activities in the afternoons.
