FAQ

Earning California credit with TalksOnLaw

Are California MCLE Podcast episodes accredited?

Yes. TalksOnLaw is a California Multiple Activity Provider (#17280), so episodes are presumptively approved for California MCLE. Episodes are approved for participatory credit — your attendance is verified by the confirmation code read during each episode — and each lists its credit hours and category. Episodes are accredited as of their publication date.

Can I complete all 25 hours with the podcast?

Yes. The library covers the full 25 hours, including every special category: legal ethics, elimination of bias (including implicit bias), competence, technology in the practice of law, and civility. Because episodes count as participatory credit, the podcast can satisfy California's 12.5-hour participatory minimum.

How do I get my certificate?

Each episode includes a spoken confirmation code. Sign in to your membership at TalksOnLaw, enter the code next to the episode, and your certificate is issued instantly. The date you enter the code is the date printed on the certificate.

Does TalksOnLaw report my hours to the State Bar?

No. California is a self-reporting state: neither attorneys nor providers report individual courses. You report your compliance to the State Bar at the end of your compliance period and keep your own certificates. TalksOnLaw retains attendance records for four years.

When is my California MCLE deadline?

It depends on your compliance group, which is set by your last name. Group 1 (A–G) reports by March 30, 2028; Group 2 (H–M) by March 30, 2027; Group 3 (N–Z) by March 30, 2029. Look up your exact deadline.

What's the difference between Podcast CLE and Premium?

Podcast CLE ($89/year) gives you credit for every podcast episode. Premium ($249/year) adds the full TalksOnLaw video library and credit in every state where TalksOnLaw is accredited.
