Continuing Legal Education

The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania in 1997 set the standards for continuing legal education programs. They have established minimum requirements for training in standards of professional competence and ethical behavior. Attorneys must accumulate 12 credit hours of instruction annually, 10 substantive credits hours and 2 ethics credit hours. Allegheny Community College offers classes three times each year, so you can schedule your course work when it's convenient for you.

Important things to know as I get older - Understanding SSA and Medicare Benefits 9 a.m. - 12:15 pm

This presentation is an introduction to the issues, concerns, and problems faced by individuals as they transition into what is referred to as “retirement age.”  There are two benefits, in particular, that are fairly universal to older Americans, and pretty foundational to an aging strategy - Social Security and Medicare.  Both are a big deal to older Americans, even if they haven’t actually retired. The goal of this presentation is to provide a basic understanding of how these systems function, their various components, their unique vocabulary, and how eligible individuals can utilize these systems effectively
