2019
teaching since

Independent, Canadian, and still practitioner-run.

Three practices, one standard of teaching.

The subject matter differs. The approach does not: a practitioner who does this work, teaching live, answering the tough questions.

Immigration professionals

RCICs, RISIAs and immigration lawyers. Live sessions across the year on the programs, refusals and litigation you are actually handling, and a catalogue wide enough that you can usually find the exact topic you came looking for.

Ontario paralegals

Practical CPD for Ontario paralegals: landlord and tenant, small claims, traffic, tribunal advocacy and practice management, taught by paralegals and lawyers who appear in those forums.

HR professionals

Legal-grade training for the workplace decisions that carry legal risk. Hiring foreign workers, terminations, accommodation and workplace investigations, explained by the people who litigate them.

Dates and instructors occasionally change; the course page is always the current one.

WHY PEOPLE COME BACK

Come out of it more competent, not just compliant.

Hours are the easy part. What makes a practitioner better is watching someone who has run the file explain why they made the call they made.

Taught by experts

Every LPEN instructor is an expert in the subject they teach: senior practitioners, certified specialists and former decision makers who spend their working week on exactly these files.

Live, then yours to keep

Sessions run live so you can ask the question you actually came with. The recording and the materials land in your account either way.

Built for Canadian practice

Everything is taught against Canadian law and Canadian decision makers, using the programs, forms and procedures you file with. Nothing is adapted from another country's material.

Certificates and credits

A certificate of completion is issued for every course you finish. Credit eligibility is confirmed course by course, and each course page says what that course carries.

FREE, NO ACCOUNT NEEDED

Do not take our word for it. Watch us teach.

CPD Clips are short excerpts pulled straight out of real LPEN sessions. Thirty five of them, sorted by topic, free to watch, no account needed.

What is in there

Clips are teaching samples. They are not themselves an accredited course.

Buy one course, or buy the year.

Most people start with a single course and end up on a pass. There is no wrong entry point, and nothing you buy expires the moment the session ends.

PAY AS YOU GO

Individual courses

From $30. Pick exactly the session you need.

BUNDLED

Seasonal and specialty passes

A themed group of live courses at a lower combined price.

BEST VALUE

2026 Annual Membership

Everything LPEN runs in 2026: all regular immigration courses and all Ontario paralegal courses, 120+ hours of it.

THE FACULTY

More than eighty experts have taught here.

Certified specialists, litigators, senior consultants and former decision makers, recruited because of what they do all week, not because they were available to present.
