Upcoming Virtual Sticks-and-Bricks CLE Program Hosted by the Construction Law Section

By Daniel J. Knight

Dear Section Members,

The NCBA Construction Law Section is hosting a day-and-a-half long CLE on September 24 and 25, 2020. Not immune to the effects of the ongoing public health crisis, this year’s CLE will take place virtually from the comfort of your office, your home, your backyard, or even a beach. Just in case you are wondering, yes, the dress code for this year’s event is “casual.”

All joking aside, this year’s CLE is a sticks-and-bricks presentation, focusing on developing a thorough understanding of the basis for the claims we, as construction attorneys, deal with on a daily basis. Segments include zoning and land use regulations, project scheduling, building envelopes, the design process, structural engineering and civil engineering. Attendees will also hear about legislative updates impacting the construction industry and learn about current trends and hot topics in the industry. Finally, for those still in need of ethics hours, this year’s CLE has been approved for 1.0 hour of Ethics/Professional Responsibility Credit.

As if attending a CLE in your pajamas or on a beach wasn’t incentive enough, the Construction Law Section is offering a $50.00 discount to the first 75 registrants. We still have several discounts left, but you better hurry.

For more information and to register, visit the North Carolina Bar Association’s website. On behalf of the Construction Law Council, we look forward to seeing you there.
