“I found the content helpful, and I am a County Counselor who deals with land use issues and condemnation on a regular basis in my practice. The only aspect with which I could find fault was that, while the Arizona presenters seemed to make good use of their time, the Chicago presenters seemed to allocate more of their time to the material on the earlier slides and then had to race through the later slides. This was especially evident during the ethics presentation. However, I took no issue with the content of the material from the Chicago presenters and enjoyed listenting to Mr. Florey.”
“The course I took did not have a designated expertise level. The moderater noted that there were new attorneys in the audience. Yet many of the speakers used jargon and acronyms that a non-specialist would not understand. I found myself looking stuff up on the web just to try to follow along.
There was no information given as to how or when credits would be reported to my state bar. I found this very frustrating. Frankly, I take, and pay a lot for, these courses to meet CLE requirements. You would think a company that owes its business to those requirements would be more attentive to this detail.”

“I have been using NBI for my CLE for years and usually have a good experience. The process of buying this seminar went fine and I had an issue that required contacting them by phone -which all also went fine. The seminar itself had some good presenters and content. But the agenda and organization of the materials was confusing and hard to follow. The seminar had a substitute presenter for some of the topics (someone who did not write the seminar materials). While I have no issue with the substitute presenter, that process diminished the value of the topic and materials. I think there should have been a notice on the site that would have alerted a purchaser to the change. I would have preferred to have selected a different seminar. NBI - you should consider giving a notice for the on-demand videos when this happens.”
“I have frequently relied on NBI for relevant in-person seminars and on-line webinars to obtain CLE accredited training, and to get the latest information on emerging issues and technology affecting the legal profession. The content is always relevant and thought provoking.”
“The video I viewed, Advanced Estate Planning 2024, overall was good. I did feel a bit shortchanged when two planned presenters were not present and we just got a reading of thier materials by another lawyer. The young lady did a good job working on short notice, but I can read the materials myself. We missed out on the insight we expected to gain from the planned presenters.
A second problem is that I had to download and watch the video, and was not told in advance of the need to record each of the letters in each session (or however they were randomly placed) so that those could be entered when we apply for CLE credits. I suspect I missed one, and if I did then I may have filled in the blanks in the wrong place when I applied.”
“The program really helped me to see how AI could help me to prepare for hearings and building defensible records. Ana, the speaker, had a good voice and her ‘cadence’ didn’t change from beginning to end which helped me to listen, view, and concentrate (about AI possible uses and applications) without being distracted by a changing delivery.”
“Did Land Sureveyor Webinar on Dec. 13th. First hour went well but I began to have loss of sound and absence of verification problems starting at 11:45. Was able to contact NBI and eventually sound and verifications came back and I was able to finish the program. NBI contact person was very courteous and helpful in getting tjhe problem resolved.. I was pleased to receive full credit for the 6 hour webinar despite the interruption.
Looking forward to another webinar on Friday.”
“I first discovered National Business Institute as a young associate. Over the years I’ve taken a number of CLE courses on a wide range of legal topics, including legal ethics. Over the last several years I’ve been invited to present as well as attend CLEs. I’ve found NBI to be a great company for ongoing education. They offer a wide array of classes that cover all 50 states and the federal government. They offer current subjects like AI, as well as various skills boot camps, and even ethics. Staff is very friendly and accessible. Customer service is quick and easy. And cost is such that you get maximum value for your dollar. I am happy to be part of the NBI community and will continue to do so for years to come.”
Thank you Joshua, this review means a lot to us! We work hard to provide our customers with easy access to the CLE they need and we’re happy to hear that you are enjoying the benefits of NBI.
“The expertise that goes into creating webinars of different topics is superb. Instructors compel interaction through their thought provoking programs.”
