We are also a qualified sponsor of continuing professional education required for those individuals enrolled to practice before the Internal Revenue Service. Our sponsor number is 809.

CLE - Continuing Legal Education for Pennsylvania Attorneys:
YourOnlineProfessor.net is an Accredited Provider for Pennsylvania Continuing Legal Education, through The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania's Continuing Legal Education Board. Registered as sponsor #7003, you may also find us on the CLE Board's official List of Accredited Providers.
Our CLE programs have been designed with a consistent commitment to quality and are completely integrated into the PA CLE database, to ensure that your credit hours are issued in accordance with state guidelines in a seamless and efficient manner. Pennsylvania CLE credits issued by us will be viewable through the state's MyPACLE portal, viewable at this link.
Self-Study and Distance-Learning Limits:
Programs available via our website fall into the categories of self-study or distance-learning. Depending on your location, there may be a limit on the number of CPE or CLE credit hours that you can earn via self-study or distance learning for a given period.
For instance, for Pennsylvania Accountants, the State Board accepts credit from individual study programs, however, the maximum continuing education credit from self-study courses is limited to 50% of the biennial requirement, or 40 hours. In Pennsylvania, CPE programs determined to be "interactive" are based on a 50-minute credit hour, and those classified as "non-interactive" generally receive credit for half of the time it would take to complete.
For Pennsylvania attorneys receiving CLE credit, the state of Pennsylvania has a limit of 4 hours of distance-learning for a given reporting period.
YourOnlineProfessor.net will occasionally host live seminars that can count towards requirements that fall outside of these limits. Please check our site often for details.
