Health and Safety Guidance for ALI CLE In-Person Courses

Last updated: August 1, 2022

As ALI CLE welcomes attendees back to in-person courses, your safety, and the safety of our speakers and staff, remain of utmost importance. Working with the venues for our programs, ALI CLE will comply with all federal, state, and local regulations and guidelines regarding public safety for our in-person attendees. All ALI CLE in-person courses will also be made available by live streaming webcast for those who prefer to attend the program remotely. Indeed, we have provided our in-person courses in a hybrid format for many years, so we have the expertise to bring you our national programming in a high-quality format that best suits your interests and needs.

In-Person Course Guidelines

Our goal is to ensure all attendees’ safety and enjoyment at our in-person courses. To do so, ALI CLE will comply with the health and safety standards of our host venues and all applicable government guidelines. Our current on-site safety policies, which may be updated over time as health and safety conditions and related advisories change, are listed below.

• ALI CLE strongly recommends that all in-person attendees, faculty, guests, and staff be fully vaccinated as defined by the CDC (two or more vaccine doses) against COVID-19, with the final dose administered at least two weeks before the start of the course.
• ALI CLE strongly recommends that attendees who are not fully vaccinated or who are immunocompromised attend the live webcast only.
• All in-person attendees, regardless of vaccine status, are encouraged to wear a mask that covers their nose and mouth while in the meeting space and registration areas. All meeting and food and beverage functions will comply with applicable federal, state, and local requirements and hotel protocols, which may be more restrictive than those listed here.
• All meeting and food and beverage functions will comply with applicable federal, state, and local requirements and hotel protocols, which may be more restrictive than those listed here.
• All course materials will be digital. Attendees should download the materials in advance and bring laptops or tablets to the programs for access to the materials during the program.

As stated above, ALI CLE will comply with the health and safety standards of our host venues and all applicable government guidelines, and our own guidelines may be more restrictive. Nevertheless, with travel to and participation in a group setting, no risk can be completely eliminated, and by attending the course in-person, you agree to assume any potential risk of exposure.

ALI CLE will notify registrants and update the website should plans for an event change due to health and safety limitations.

Conditions for Attending

You should not attend an ALI CLE course in-person if at the time of the course or within the 14 days preceding the program:

• You have experienced any COVID-19 (or COVID-19-like) symptoms.
• You have traveled from an area under a travel health advisory.
• You have provided care for or had close contact with any person testing positive for or reasonably suspected of having COVID-19, or with any person who traveled outside of your home country or to an area under a travel health advisory.
• You have been advised by any health authority, government agency, or regulation to self-isolate due to possible exposure to COVID-19.

By attending one of our in-person courses, you agree to the guidelines and conditions outlined above. If you have any one of the conditions listed above, or suspect that you might, contact ALI CLE Customer Service at custserv@ali-cle.org at any time leading up to the in-person program and we will change your registration to the webcast. If at any time during the in-person course you begin to experience COVID-19 symptoms, or come into contact with someone testing positive for COVID-19 or experiencing symptoms, for the safety of others you will be required to leave the on-site program immediately and may either transfer to the webcast or receive a refund of your registration fee.
