How Do I Self-Apply In Washington?

If there is a course you see in our catalog that you'd like to watch but is not approved for Washington CLE credit, you have the option to self-apply for approval with the state. To do so, follow the instructions below:

1. Before you start a program, you will be prompted to select which states you'd like to receive credit in. If Washington is not on the list of pre-approved states, click the 'Eligible To Self-Apply' option and select Washington.

2. After you complete the course, you'll be issued a certificate of completion which can then be used as part of your application for Washington CLE credit. This will serve as evidence that you already watched the course and will include much of the information required for self-applying, such as the title, presenter(s), length of the program, etc. The certificate will be sent to you via email, but it can also be found in your account by clicking 'Me' in the top right corner of your screen and then clicking 'Certificates.'

3. Once you complete your course, fill out the form below to officially apply for WA credit:

• Washington Self-Apply Form

4. Send your form and any required attachments directly to Washington. Their contact information is below, but is also listed on the application itself:

Washington Bar Association
1325 4th Avenue Suite 600
Seattle, WA 98101-2539 

**Note: Courses must be completed within 5 years of their production date to be eligible for WA credit.
