Pennsylvania Legal Aid Network, Inc. is currently hosting its 2021 PLAN Statewide Virtual Training Conference.  Being unable to hold the annual conference in-person, due to the pandemic, PLAN is hosting a virtual conference during the months of September, October and November.

The conference will present approximately 40-45 webinars in the following areas:

  • Communications
  • Elder Law
  • Employment Law
  • Family Law
  • General Session
  • Homeownership & Consumer Rights
  • Health Law
  • Housing and Landlord/Tenant Law
  • Public Benefits
  • Trial Advocacy Skills
  • Utility Law
  • Education

The full slate of webinars is still being finalized, so it is recommended to check back frequently to see what new workshops have been added.

Attendence at the conference is free and Pennsylvania Continuing Legal Education credits are being offered for most of the webinars.

The conference agenda is available on SCHED, an online app available on a desktop computer or through a mobile app. Click Here for instructions on how to create your account Sched where you can create your own personal schedule of workshops you plan to attend.
