Bar Association Co-Host Webinar — Production Brief Generator

When to use this

Invoke when:

• HAQQ is planning a co-hosted event with a bar association
• A bar association partner asks for a webinar agenda or speaker brief
• A marketing team needs a full production brief for an upcoming CLE-credited webinar
• A BD team is pitching a bar association on a co-branded event and needs a compelling program outline
• Post-event: generating the follow-up email sequence and on-demand availability announcement

Inputs

Input	Required	Notes
Bar association name and jurisdiction	Yes	Drives topic selection and CLE rules
Practice area focus	Yes	E.g., employment law + AI, contract review, corporate compliance
Speaker from HAQQ	Yes	Name, title, key credential for speaker bio
Bar association speaker	Optional	Name, title; if not yet confirmed, placeholder
Target date and format	Yes	Live webinar / hybrid; duration (typically 60–90 min)
CLE credit sought	Optional	Number of CLE/CPD hours; applicable bar rules
Member engagement goal	Optional	Lead capture, free trial conversion, awareness only

Step 1: Topic selection

Winning webinar topics for bar association co-hosting:

Topic frame	Why it works
"Practical AI in [practice area] — What Works Today"	Actionable, not theoretical; practitioners want tools, not hype
"What AI Can and Cannot Do for Lawyers in [Jurisdiction]"	Directly addresses member anxiety about AI relevance and risk
"Reviewing Contracts Faster Without Sacrificing Quality"	Speaks to the billable-hour efficiency pressure most members feel
"AI and Professional Responsibility — What the Rules Say"	Ethics topic has broad appeal; bar associations are credible hosts for ethics CLE
"Drafting for MENA Jurisdictions — Where AI Helps and Where It Doesn't"	Jurisdiction-specific framing resonates with MENA bars more than generic AI content

The HAQQ speaker should own the "what the AI does and how" portion; the bar leadership should own the "professional responsibility and member implications" portion.

Step 2: CLE credit application

CLE/CPD credit rules vary by bar:

Bar	Credit body	Typical process
Lebanese Bar Association (LBBA)	LBBA Continuing Education Committee	Apply 4–6 weeks before; submit program agenda, speaker credentials, and learning objectives
Dubai Bar	Dubai Courts / DIFC Courts training programs	Contact Continuing Legal Education unit
Saudi Bar Association (SABA)	SABA Education Committee	Arabic-language content requirement for full credit
Egyptian Bar Association	EBA	Formal application; bar leadership endorsement required
UK Solicitors Regulation Authority	SRA	Attendance log required; CPD is self-certified

CLE application content to generate:

• Learning objectives (3–5 specific, measurable outcomes)
• Program agenda with time allocations
• Speaker bios with relevant credentials
• Substantive content description (why this is legal education, not marketing)

Step 3: Webinar production brief

Speaker briefing

• Each speaker receives a one-page brief: their segment, key messages, talking points, and slides they are responsible for
• HAQQ speaker: demos should use real use cases, not generic examples
• Bar speaker: should speak to member impact, not HAQQ product features

Run of show (90-minute format)

Time	Segment	Owner
0:00–0:05	Welcome and housekeeping	Bar association host
0:05–0:15	Opening framing: where is AI today for MENA lawyers?	HAQQ speaker
0:15–0:40	Main content: [practice area focus] with live demo	HAQQ speaker
0:40–0:55	Professional responsibility and member implications	Bar association speaker
0:55–1:10	Q&A	Both speakers
1:10–1:15	Closing: next steps, free trial offer, CLE credit confirmation	Bar association host
1:15–1:20	Post-session networking (optional, for hybrid events)	—

Registration and promotion

• Co-branded landing page (bar association logo + HAQQ logo)
• Member email from bar association (most effective channel; members trust bar comms)
• HAQQ social and email promotion
• LinkedIn event page with speaker bios
• Reminder sequence: 1 week, 1 day, 1 hour before

Step 4: Member engagement and lead capture

During the webinar:

• Free 30-day Louis trial offer for attendees (use bar-specific promotional code for attribution)
• Poll questions: "Do you currently use AI in your practice?" → captures member segmentation data
• Resource download: one-page summary of the session + links to relevant Louis tools

Post-webinar follow-up (within 48 hours):

• Thank-you email from bar association with recording link and CLE certificate download
• HAQQ follow-up email to attendees who redeemed the trial code
• Non-redeemers: a second email at day 7 with a different hook (e.g., case study or demo video)

Step 5: Recording and on-demand availability

• Record the live session (with speaker consent)
• Edit to remove dead time (introductions, waiting for late attendees)
• Post to: HAQQ website / bar association member portal / LinkedIn / YouTube (if content is appropriate for public)
• Create a short highlight clip (2–3 minutes) for social media
• Register the on-demand version for CLE credit where the bar rules permit

Quality bar

A co-hosted webinar that is perceived as a product advertisement rather than genuine legal education damages HAQQ's credibility with the bar. The content bar: at least 60% of the session should be substantive legal-education content that would be valuable regardless of whether the attendee uses Louis. The remaining 40% can demonstrate how Louis makes that content actionable.
