CPD Requirements for LSI

Most legal practitioners in Ireland require Continuing Professional Development Hours or Points to maintain their professional designation. Browse courses that meet your requirements, or choose one of our course packages, specially curated to contain the hours and credits you need, in a single place. The courses on LearnFormula may be counted towards professionally relevant, verifiable, structured learning activities. It is the student's responsibility to validate whether an activity is an eligible educational activity for their professional development requirements based on their own learning needs.

Simplifying Regulations for 2026

Solicitors to whom the Regulations apply are required in each practice year/CPD cycle to undertake a minimum of 25 hours of CPD (the “minimum CPD requirement”), of which at least 5 hours must comprise professional development and solicitor wellbeing and of which at least 3 hours must comprise client care and professional standards

The minimum CPD requirement must be undertaken in one of the permitted ways, that is, in group study (minimum of 5 hours/20% of the annual CPD requirement), by eLearning (maximum of 20 hours/80% of the annual CPD requirement) and/or by writing relevant material that is published (maximum of 12.5 hours/50% of the annual CPD requirement), the criteria and restrictions applying to each permitted way being detailed in heading 7. Solicitors should note that private study and/or research is not a permitted way of completing CPD.

Courses on LearnFormula may qualify as eLearning.
