Requirement to take South Carolina Bar
CLE “Essentials Series.”
Pursuant to SCACR
Rule 408(a)(3), newly admitted members are required, unless you fall within one or more of the
exemptions outlined in Rule 408 (a)(3)(A)-(D), to complete one (not all) of the SC Bar CLE
“Essentials Series” courses. Attendance
at Essentials Courses not only meets the Essentials requirement, but also
counts toward your required annual 14 hours of MCLE. No other CLE course, workshop,
video series (i.e., the Supreme Court’s Course of Study), or bootcamp will
satisfy this requirement.
The “Essentials Series”
is comprised of 10 full-day courses, which cover major practice areas, as well
as legal ethics. Each course is designed
and taught by experienced practitioners, are process oriented, and are
specifically designed to provide step-by-step teaching, as well as the
opportunity to interact with the faculty.
By Order
dated May 5, 2021, the South Carolina Supreme Court has waived the requirement
that new admittees attend an Essentials Series course in-person at the SC Bar
Conference Center. Therefore, if you
choose to fulfill the requirement online, you may do so by completing a
pre-recorded, on-demand version of the program of your choice no later than the
annual MCLE filing deadline of March 1, 2022.
Those programs will be made available at a later date.
We will, however, offer each of the Essentials
Series programs, live, at the SC Bar Conference Center. There are advantages to attending in
person.
Programs will not
be available via live webcast but will be available on-demand.
In-person
attendance will afford the opportunity to interact and network with the
faculty.
By
Commission rule, only live, in-person MCLE credit hours may be carried forward
to the following MCLE reporting period.
Lunch
will be provided for those attending in-person.
In-person
attendees will be offered significant discounts on SC Bar CLE publications.
