Although according to §43a BRAO (Federal Code of the Legal Profession) a German Lawyer is under an obligation to update his professional expertise, no formalised system of CLE credit is yet in place.
However, in order to maintain the title of "Fachanwalt" (specialist lawyer), German lawyers must take part in advanced training for at least 10 hours per year (§15 Fachanwaltsordnung).
There are around 20 areas of practice (criminal, family, property, inheritance, administrative, labour, etc...)
