The Nigerian Bar Association Institute of Continuing Legal Education (NBA-ICLE) serves as the NBA's regulatory authority for continuous professional development. It is dedicated to organizing training programmes and activities that enhance the proficiency and capacity of its members, ensuring they provide high-quality services to their clients. This approach is carefully designed to improve legal practitioners' technical skills, promote career advancement, and cultivate business acumen.
NBA-ICLE plays a crucial role in overseeing quality assurance and control of training programmes for legal professionals. This includes comprehensive reporting and monitoring to maintain the highest standards. Additionally, the Institute offers essential advisory services that support the Nigerian Bar Association in its governance of the Institute and contribute to research initiatives undertaken by the Association. This multifaceted approach highlights NBA-ICLE's commitment to fostering excellence and innovation in the legal profession.
Established under the Nigerian Bar Association and supported by the Rule of Law and Anti-Corruption (RoLAC II) programme, the Institute offers self-paced, online courses that fulfil practitioners' continuing professional development requirements.
Our goal is to make high-quality legal education accessible to every called-to-bar practitioner, regardless of their location or connectivity, while maintaining the integrity of the programme through practitioner verification and verifiable certificates.
