The proposed bill would amend current statutes by adding certified legal document preparers to the list of professionals required to earn continuing education credits for both state agency license renewal and their annual continuing legal education (CLE) activity requirements. Specifically, it would insert language to state that if a certified legal document preparer attends a continuing education program that meets certain criteria, they must receive credit for both their state agency license renewal and their annual CLE requirements.
Additionally, the bill would make conforming changes to ensure consistency in the language used throughout the statute. The current law remains unchanged except for these insertions, which clarify the obligations of certified legal document preparers in relation to continuing education credits.
