Track Your CLE Hours Using CE Broker
Register at https://www.cebroker.com/mi/account/basic to create a free CE Broker account. As your credits are uploaded you will be able to see your current compliance status in real time when you are logged into your account.
Upload your proofs of completion to your account. Some providers will do this automatically but if you do not see that you received credit within 1-2 weeks of the event you can upload proof on your own so that your account is properly credited. MIDC will add your credits if you have providers email notices of completion to lara-midc-cle@michigan.gov but it is your responsibility to make sure that your account is accurate and current as of December 31st of each year. Please retain copies of your proof of completion for your records in case issues arise.
If you are unable to create an account, you need to be added to the MIDC list by the body that you provide indigent defense through (i.e. public defender's office or MAAC) as they submit lists quarterly to MIDC and then CE Broker adds to their roster once those lists are updated. While you are waiting to be added just save your certificates of completion and you can load them all at once when your account has been created.
Note that there are paid options for CE Broker but those are not required for you to track your hours. You are free to sign up for those options at your own discretion but the free account is all that you need and no credit card information is required.
