Who We Are and What We Do
We are Continuing Education of the Bar (CEB), providing innovative resources and practice-oriented tools that help attorneys better serve their clients. From online legal research and MCLE to forms solutions and print books, CEB strives to make high-quality legal information accessible to everyone, from rural solo practices to large law firms.
CEB was founded in 1947, with the mandate to educate veterans returning to the practice of law after service in World War II. As a not-for-profit program of the University of California CEB is driven by the needs of the California legal community rather than by profit margins. Unlike many other legal content providers, our writing, editing, and production take place in-state and in-house, so our customers can practice law with the solid assurance that they are backed by the very best California-focused tools and information. We are proud of what we do, and our customers’ success is our success.
