Despite some of the whispers you’ve heard about online law CPD training, on-demand webinars carry the same weight as any in-person events and live webinars. In fact, they provide greater flexibility for busy solicitors working with demanding schedules.
Here’s why the stigma surrounding on-demand CPD seminars is just silly:
Equal Recognition
Law societies across Australia treat on-demand webinars the same way they treat live seminars. You earn the identical number of CPD points per hour once the program is completed.
Because of this equal recognition in the eyes of the law, you can rest assured that you are not at risk of short-changing yourself. The value of on-demand webinars is universally recognised, since it’s the substance of the content that really counts, not the way you access it.
Superior Flexibility
For many solicitors, carving out half a day to attend a seminar in person or attend a live webinar is simply not feasible. Long matters in court, late nights with client work, back-to-back consultations, or urgent deadlines can interrupt even the best intentions.
On-demand programs remove this barrier. You can pause, revisit, or even complete a seminar in smaller portions whenever you can find the time, which means your learning adapts to your circumstances rather than the other way around.
Depth of Content and Learning Outcomes
Just because you’re attending a seminar on demand, it doesn’t mean that the quality of speakers or the breadth of topics is compromised. It’s quite the opposite, actually, since you can choose from a much wider selection of recorded past events.
Whether you need to upskill and earn some CPD points in employment law, ethics, family law, contract law, or practice management, the material is the same as the live presentation. You will still gain valuable insights from experts, get access to the latest legal developments, and sharpen your practical skills without having to sacrifice your learning standards.
The only downside is that you can’t engage in discussions, ask questions, or network with other legal professionals via a recorded session. However, if this is not important to you, then you’re really losing nothing by attending on demand.
