Welcome to the Conduct, Compliance & Legal Advisory Section (CCLS) Education Sub-Committee of the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO).
We are a group of volunteers in the Compliance & Legal field, dedicated to providing CIRO Member Firms with education on Compliance & Legal oriented topics. We do this via Breakfast Seminars, an Annual Conference generally held in December of each year and a Golf Tournament. Our aim is to serve your needs, so please do not hesitate to contact any of the members of the Education Sub-Committee with your suggestions or email the Sub-Committee at either chair@clseducation.ca or at registrations@clseducation.ca.

Our Mandate
Simply put, our mandate is to develop and deliver education programmes to the Compliance and Legal professionals employed by CIRO's member firms.
Generally, we organize and provide 3 breakfast seminars, 1 golf tournament, and 1 full-day Annual Conference each year. We strive to provide sessions covering information that is both timely and informative for both our large and small member firms, both in the retail and institutional areas, as well as topics that are of more general interest to our constituency.
Our committee is made up entirely of volunteers who donate their time and expertise.
