Description

This session is sold out.  However, you can sign up for the afternoon session.  Or join the waitlist by emailing registrations@staff.azbar.org.  If a spot opens, we will contact you.

Join us for "Ethical Morning at the Movies" or “Ethical Afternoon at the Movies!" Two programs this year to make it convenient for everyone who wants to attend. 

Larry Cohen carefully curates a selection of clips from both classic and contemporary films and television shows that highlight legal ethics dilemmas.  Each program, the morning session and afternoon session, will feature different movie clips. Whichever session you choose you can expect to be thoroughly entertained while you learn and earn ethics credit!   Participate and you won’t leave empty-handed.  Prizes will be awarded throughout the day to those who actively participate in the discussion. 

To ensure everyone's comfort, and because of limited seating at this venue, we are hosting two separate programs. Register early because both of these programs will sell out!
