Credit for Out-of-State CLE

If an attorney has taken a course out of state that has not been accredited by the provider in Tennessee, the attorney may seek accreditation of the course themselves and pay the $2/hour reporting fee.

To submit a request for Out-of-State Credits, send the following information to info@cle.TNcourts.gov:
This form
• An Application for Accreditation
• Course Description
• Biographies of the speakers
• An agenda from the event if it’s more than one session
• Certificate of completion signed by the provider verifying the hours completed


If the course was attended online, please follow the instructions on this form.
Any course taken within Tennessee must be accredited and reported by the provider. If not, an attorney may not get credit for the course.
