CLE Committee

The Canadian Defence Lawyers' Continuing Legal Education Committee was the first committee established when CDL was formed in 1995, with the mandate of developing an providing education that addressed the issues faced by Defence lawyers across Canada.

CLE Committee members have the chance to advance and influence educational content by assisting with the planning of our continuing legal education across Canada. Each province is unique and members from each region provide that unique local perspective. The committee includes CDL leaders, other committee representatives and members at large.

The Committee Chair is the executive's 1st Vice President. The 2021/2022 Chair is Andrea Lim, of Dutton Brock LLP in Toronto, Ontario,
