*Beginning on July 1, 2023, experienced and newly admitted attorneys must comply with the 1-credit requirement in the Cybersecurity, Privacy, and Data Protection category of CLE credit. Experienced attorneys due to re-register on or after July 1, 2023 (birthday is on or after July 1st) must complete at least 1 CLE credit hour in Cybersecurity, Privacy, and Data Protection as part of their biennial CLE requirement. Please see the CLE Program Rules at 22 NYCRR 1500.22(a)
You may choose to complete the Cybersecurity credit in Cybersecurity General or Cybersecurity Ethics (or a combination of the two: ½ credit in Cybersecurity General and ½ credit in Cybersecurity Ethics).
You may count a maximum of 3 credit hours of
Cybersecurity Ethics -
but not Cybersecurity General - toward your 4-credit Ethics and Professionalism requirement.
Example: if you earn 3 credits in Cybersecurity Ethics, then you still need to earn 1 credit in Ethics and Professionalism, 1 credit in Diversity, Inclusion, and Elimination of Bias, and 19 credits in any category of credit - a total of 24 credits
New York CLE Deadline (experienced attorneys only): Within 30 days of the attorney's birthday on alternate years.
