• Course must provide mechanisms to ensure high levels of interactivity and permit the attendee to participate or react with the presenter, other attendees, or with the education software itself based on, or branching from, responses by the participant. Quizzes, response tracking, user prompts, instant messaging, time recorders, or other methods as determined by the Commission are appropriate mechanisms.

• The provider must utilize a mechanism to monitor course participation and completion. An attendee must complete the program in such a manner that certification of attendance is controlled by the provider. The method of attorney identification and verification must be explained to and approved by the Commission in advance and any subsequent changes must be approved by the Commission.

• The course shall provide high quality written instructional materials. These materials may be available to be downloaded or otherwise furnished so that the attendee will have the ability to refer to such materials during, and subsequent to, the seminar.
  
• The presentation shall include audio and/or video components so each attendee will have the ability to hear and/or see an actual presentation made by a speaker. Presentations of such poor audio and video quality that participants cannot see or hear the content under reasonable conditions will not be accredited.

• Courses shall not be susceptible to a "fast forward finish" by attendees. In other words, the accreditation process will include analysis of courses that may be accessed and completed in immediate fashion for credit. Courses of this nature will not be approved.
  
  
• Computer based education will be accredited for actual time spent to a maximum of one hour of credit per activity and require a completion certificate from the sponsor (in a format determined by the Commission) and the Kansas Application Form for Technologically Based Programming.
  
  
• The target audience must be attorneys and instructed by attorneys competent in the subject area.
  

Course Approval Conditions.

In addition to the above course standards, providers and programs are subject to the following:

• Courses must be preapproved by the Kansas CLE Commission.

• Providers shall inform participants of minimum and/or recommended system requirements to access program.

• In order to receive credit, each attendee must complete an evaluation of the course in a format determined by the Commission.

• Verification of attendance must be submitted by the provider within 30 days of attendee completion. Attendance reports will only be accepted from the provider. Attendance reported by an individual attorney will not be accepted.

• Providers shall furnish the Commission with password and/or log-in capabilities for applied programs. Access will allow for review of course control mechanisms, such as time recorders, interactive functionality, evaluations and other relevant course programming. The activity may be audited by one or more representatives of the Commission, free of charge, if requested by the Commission. If the provider wishes to have materials or software returned after examination, the provider must arrange and pay for shipping of those materials.
