Continuing Education Credits

CIRO CE CREDITS:

  • Participants in our Seminars are eligible for One (1) Continuing Education Credit (CE Credit) for each hour towards fulfilling their Compliance Credits.  
  • Attendance for each hour at the Annual Conference entitles the attendee to One (1) Continuing Education Credit (CE Credit) per session for a maximum of Six (6) CE credits. 

LSUC CPD HOURS:

  • Our sessions may also be eligible to fulfil the Law Society of Upper Canada's requirements for Substantive CPD Hours. Substantive Hours may address substantive or procedural law topics and/or related skills and need not be accredited.  Non-legal subjects may also be eligible for Substantive Hours if they are relevant to the lawyer's or paralegal's practice and professional development.  Members of the LSUC should consult with their firm's Learning & Development departments for more information.

Our Mandate

Simply put, our mandate is to develop and deliver education programmes to the Compliance and Legal professionals employed by CIRO's member firms.  

Generally, we organize and provide 3 breakfast seminars, 1 golf tournament, and 1 full-day Annual Conference each year.  We strive to provide sessions covering information that is both timely and informative for both our large and small member firms, both in the retail and institutional areas, as well as topics that are of more general interest to our constituency.

Our committee is made up entirely of volunteers who donate their time and expertise.
