Calling all lawyers! The Law Society of Alberta has recently announced that all Alberta lawyers with an active status must submit an annual plan by October 1, 2024. Alberta lawyers can now start creating their CPD Plans through the Lawyer Portal. Lawyers are required to select at least two competencies from the 29 available, and at least one learning activity. There is currently no requirement to complete a minimum number of CPD hours. New this year, you can now save competencies in the CPD Tool that you wish to develop in future years.
