Looks like I ignited a firestorm! Not quite what I had intended.
I am open to reasonable suggestions.
Continuing Education, at first glance, sure LOOKS like a good thing.
Some States require it; some do not. Of those that do, the amount varies widely.
Since we have the track record, and we ought to be able to compare the two (CEU vs Non-CEU requirement).... it seems reasonable that, if the idea was truly a good one, we would be able to point to the results.
So- Where are the results? Absent the results, such a requirement is nothing but an additional burden on the law-abiding... and a gravy train for seminar factories!
Before I'd support extending this requirement, I'd like to see some proof.
