New 2026 Webinar Series: 18 Free CLE Webinars on Contracting Fundamentals

Hi {{first_name|there}},

I decided to use the last stretch of webinars this year to cover something different. Instead of AI and niche topics, I’m launching our Core Skills Webinar Series. Tune in to any of our 18 free CLE webinars for insights into the concepts and nuances that people working on commercial contracts need to know. Each webinar focuses on two core contracting skills and covers basic, intermediate, and advanced concepts for each.

This series is made possible by our sponsor Spellbook, a contract-focused tool that helps you review, redline, and draft directly in Microsoft Word and Google Docs.

The webinars are scheduled on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from November 3 through December 17 at 12 pm ET (excluding Thanksgiving week).

The only way to watch these webinars is to register for each program or to join our premium membership. Everyone who registers for a webinar can watch it live or on demand for seven days afterward. If you want to receive an update every Monday with upcoming webinars, click on “Manage Preferences” in the email footer to add Webinar Updates to your preferred list.

Here are the webinars for the first two weeks.
