The American College of Parliamentary Lawyers (ACPL) is a professional association of lawyers from the United States and Canada.[1]

Founded in 2007, the College states that one of its purposes is "to provide a forum for the exchange of information among experienced legal professionals for the purpose of the advancement of parliamentary law".[2] This organization also advocates the use of parliamentary procedure in voluntary organizations.[3]

"Parliamentary law" (i.e. the procedures used by deliberative assemblies to make decisions in meetings) is separate from the legal matters that lawyers are trained in.Шаблон:Citation needed Generally, lawyers are not necessarily also parliamentarians, or experts in meeting procedures.Шаблон:Citation needed As a result, this association was formed to connect the two fields. Only individuals who are both lawyers and parliamentarians could be members in this organization.[4]

For its meetings, ACPL uses Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised (RONR) to conduct its business.[5]
