 An e-book with CPD
by Nick Holmes and Delia Venables
Questions to be answered for CPD

Purchasers of Legal Web 2007/2008 – Legal Information and Web 2.0 who wish to earn 5 CPD points should complete and submit the form below to me (Delia Venables) once they have read the e-book.

I am normally able to send you the reply within 2 working days. However, occasionally there are computer problems or I am even on holiday! If you wish to check on the latest situation with respect to possible problems or delays, please see The Problems Page.

Note that these questions are not on substantive issues of the law but are straightforward questions about the topics and sites described in the course and are designed to show that you have indeed read the material and visited the principle sites described.

We will change the questions from time to time, so make sure that you are accessing the most recent set of questions when you come to take the test. The last changes to these questions were made on September 18th 2007.

There are 10 questions below, and there are 2 questions for each of the 5 chapters of the course. Do not worry about the precise style or format of the answers - the questions will be marked by a human being (i.e. me) not a machine! However, do not hit "Return" or "Tab" in the middle of one of your answers, since the system then assumes that you have finished answering that question.
