Thanks to modern technology, you don't need to earn your legal CPD points by attending seminars in person anymore. Nowadays, you can earn all your legal CPD points on demand.
How do you decide whether to attend a virtual event live or simply watch the recording? Let's compare the two approaches.
The Pros and Cons of Attending Live
✅ If you attend an online legal CPD event live, you can engage in real-time interaction. Our presenters allow attendees to ask questions and participate in discussions. This can enhance your understanding and help clarify complex legal topics immediately.
✅ Many of our online events have live networking opportunities with virtual breakout rooms and chat functions where legal professionals can connect with one another, share their insights, and develop professional relationships.
✅ Live events run on a fixed schedule, which can help you maintain discipline and focus and the sense of accountability can lead to better engagement compared to self-paced learning.
❌ However, on the downside, the rigid scheduling of live events means that you have to adjust your schedule to suit it, which might be challenging if you're having a busy week.
❌ Sometimes, live streaming can run into technical issues. If you don't have a stable internet connection, you could miss out on important information.
The Pros and Cons of Attending On Demand
✅ On-demand events are flexible. You can learn at your own pace and can fit sessions into your schedule.
✅ With on-demand events, you can pause and rewind to review complex concepts as often as needed. This can be particularly useful if you are dealing with intricate matters or going through a lot of detail in the course.
✅ Also, there are no geographical constraints to on-demand content, as you don't have to deal with things like time zone issues. This makes it accessible to all legal professionals, even if you're travelling abroad.
❌ On the downside, on-demand events don't offer any live interaction opportunities. This can limit your level of understanding, as you won't be able to ask questions or engage with the speakers.
❌ Without scheduled deadlines in place, less disciplined individuals might also struggle with procrastination, leading to a last-minute rush to meet CPD requirements.
❌ On-demand events have no networking opportunities, which can reduce your chances to connect with peers or industry experts and build professional relationships.
No matter the option you prefer, we make it possible for you to attend events live or on demand. Earn your legal CPD points online by signing up today, or contact us now for additional information.
