Abstract

The aim of this article is threefold, firstly to document in brief the idea of Continuing Legal Education (CLE), secondly to highlight the need for CLE programmes and thirdly to argue for the relevance of CLE within the realm of existing Indian legal education (ILE). The first half of the paper demonstrates how the system of CLE is in vogue almost throughout the world in all jurisdictions. Studies have reveled that the activities through CLE programmes have ensured higher rate of professional ethics and responsibility amongst legal professionals. Further, since legal reforms and Professor (Dr.) Neelkantha Ramakrishna Madhava Menon is popularly used as synonym, within the larger context of ILE, the second half of the paper therefore presents a tribute to the father of modern legal education and the brain behind the relevance of CLE in India.
