> You pass the bar 1 time. Not every couple years.

You maintain a current law license, which requires having passed the bar once, continuing education requirements, and the absence of professional mal-, mis-, or non-feasance sufficient to lose that license. Taken together, the requirements are ongoing, though some individual elements are one-time.

In my state lawyers need 15 hours per year. If they are anything like my wife’s medical continuing education credits they are super easy to get because many of the things she already has to do for work count.

Not getting disbarred hardly counts as an ongoing requirement in all but the most meaningless sense of the word.

you do that while you are on the job, and generally i expect that the time and cost for that is covered by the current employer.
