About Boot Camp CPD

Practical CPDs you can Actually Use!

We Built the CPD You Actually Deserve.

Most continuing education is forgettable. You sit through it, collect your hours, and walk away with nothing you can use on Monday morning.

Boot Camp CPD was built to fix that.

We are a CPD content provider built specifically for licensees who carry real files, appear in real courts, and need training that keeps up with them. No filler. No padding. No presentations designed to check a box. Just dense, practical, field-tested content – delivered fast and built to stick.

Why It Works
No Filler
Every minute of every program is load-bearing content.
Practitioner-Led
Taught by people with real files, not lecture notes.
LSO Accredited
Every hour counts toward your annual requirement.

The Philosophy

We call it the Boot Camp CPD model for a reason.

You learn a lot. You learn it quickly. And you walk away ready to use it.

Every program we build is designed around one question: can a licensee take this into their next file and make it count? If the answer is no, it doesn't make the cut.

Our programs cover criminal law, provincial offences, advocacy, civil practice, drafting, ethics, and practice management – the real range of work that Ontario practitioners actually do. We go deep on the things that matter and skip everything that doesn't.

The People Behind It

Boot Camp CPD was founded by Frank Alfano – a former criminal and quasi-criminal defence practitioner with 33 years of courtroom experience, credentials from the University of London (LL.B.) and Osgoode Hall (LL.M.), and a career that started not in a lecture hall, but in a courtroom.

Frank didn't learn law by reading about it. He learned it by doing it – with reps, pressure, and real consequences on the line. That's the standard he built Boot Camp CPD around.

Our speaker roster is built the same way. We bring in top practitioners and educators who know their subject matter cold and can teach it in a way that translates to actual practice. These are not keynote speakers. They are working professionals who have been in the rooms, done the hearings, and handled the files.

Who This Is For

Boot Camp CPD is built for licensees who take their practice seriously.

If you are a lawyer or paralegal with active files and limited time – and you want CPD that actually earns its place in your schedule – you are in the right place.

We are not for everyone. We are for the ones who show up ready to work.

The Standard

Practical. Intensive. Results-oriented.

That is the Boot Camp CPD standard, and we hold every program to it.

If you are ready to meet your CPD hours and actually sharpen your practice at the same time – let's get to work.
