State-Specific Hour Types

Ethics, diversity, bias elimination, substance abuse, technology — each state requires different hour categories. CLE Hero tracks them all and displays the correct types for each jurisdiction.

When you add an accreditation for a state, CLE Hero shows you exactly which hour types that state recognizes.

  • State-specific hour categories
  • Automatic display of available types per state
  • Carried through to certificates and reports

Jurisdiction-Aware Certificates

Certificates automatically include the correct state-specific information: activity numbers, hour types, provider numbers, and formatting that meets each state's requirements.

A course accredited in five states produces five different certificates, each tailored to its jurisdiction.

  • State-specific certificate formatting
  • Correct provider and activity numbers
  • One course, multiple state certificates

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about multi-state CLE compliance.

Which states and jurisdictions are supported?
CLE Hero supports all U.S. states with mandatory CLE requirements, plus the District of Columbia and U.S. territories. Our jurisdiction database is maintained and updated as state rules change.
How do I add accreditation for a new state?
From your course settings, click 'Add Accreditation' and select the state. CLE Hero shows you the available hour types for that jurisdiction. Enter your activity number, select the applicable hour types and credit amounts, and you're set.
Do different states have different completion requirements?
Yes. Some states require attendance codes, others require specific watch percentages for on-demand courses, and many require course evaluations. CLE Hero knows each state's requirements and enforces them automatically.
How does CLE Hero handle courses accredited in multiple states?
Each state accreditation on a course is independent. An attorney selects their state when enrolling, and CLE Hero applies that state's completion rules and generates a state-specific certificate when they finish.
What happens when state rules change?
CLE Hero monitors state CLE rule changes and updates the platform accordingly. When rules change, existing courses are not affected retroactively — changes apply to new enrollments going forward.
