2Instructions/Sponsor Obligations
By submitting this Application, the Sponsor agrees to comply with all of Ohio’s CLE Rules and Regulations
including any amendments thereto.
Form 6 is to be used by Sponsors presenting a CLE activity in Ohio. You must file this form at least 60 days
prior to presentation for Commission approval of a CLE activity. The application for accreditation shall be
accompanied by a nonrefundable application fee of $25.00 (Regulation 405). (Please note: if you are an
Established Sponsor, you must use Form 18, not Form 6.) If you are submitting an application less than 60 days
in advance for an activity that will take place in Ohio, please include a $100 nonrefundable late fee, in addition
to the application fee.
Form 6 may also be used by the Sponsor of an out-of-state CLE activity or an Ohio attorney attending an out-
of-state CLE activity. If you are requesting pre-approval, the application should be received at least 60 days in
advance of the program so that we have ample time to review the application. Post-program approval must be
requested within 60 days after the program takes place (Regulation 410). Individual attorney applicants will be
charged a fee of $25 for applications filed more than 60 days after the program.
If attendance at an activity is limited to persons associated with your organization or if all the speakers at that
program are associated with your organization, then the activity may be considered to be a “Special Program.”
Please see Regulation 407 for an explanation of the additional requirements for this type of program. You must
submit Form 8 rather than Form 6 to apply for a Special Program.
Please make sure that your application is complete and accurate; incomplete applications will be returned to the
sender unprocessed. We are unable to match up correspondence sent separately from the application. If you
wish to submit supplemental information or make changes to a pending application, please wait until you have
been assigned an Ohio Activity Code. Additional materials can be accepted only if they are clearly marked with
the Ohio Activity Code.
A Sponsor of a CLE activity approved under this Regulation must submit all requests for CLE credit to the
Commission within 30 days after presentation of the CLE activity. Instructions for electronic transfer of CLE
credits are available by contacting the CLE office. Instructions also are included with notification of approval of
the program. A list of attendees at each approved CLE activity must be kept by the Sponsor for 2 years following
the presentation of the CLE activity. (Regulation 405 (E))
A Sponsor is required to allow the Commission, or its designated representative, to audit the CLE activity at no
charge and without prior notification.
Sixty minutes of actual instruction or other approved activity shall constitute one credit hour (Rule X, Sec. 5(A).
Programs less than 60 minutes in length are not eligible for CLE credit in Ohio.
Regulation 408.1(A) requires that attendees in a group setting viewing a prerecorded program or viewing a
program using live technology, such as video-conferencing and teleconferencing, be able to ask questions of the
program faculty during or immediately following the presentation. If faculty members are not available either in
person or via live telecommunication during the presentation or if a qualified speaker is not present, then
attendees shall be provided a methodology to ask questions and receive responses from faculty within 72 hours
of the presentation.
During each biennial compliance period, Ohio attorneys are required to meet a Professional Conduct
requirement that includes 2.50 hours of professional conduct instruction. If you are requesting credit for
professional conduct, please provide a description showing that the program content meets the requirements of
Gov. Bar R. X, Sec. 3 (B). If the materials do not clearly show this, then your application will be returned to you
unprocessed with a request for additional information. For a list of topics that qualify for accreditation as
professional conduct, see Gov. Bar R. X, Sec. 3(B).
Please note that it may take up to 45 days to process your application.
