CPE Tracking for Preparer and Reviewer Training

Both paid and free training employ an attendance monitoring system. The Guidelines are provided below. Visit each training’s webpage for additional information, including speaker(s), program description and registration information.

Please note: Paid participants — CPE certificates will not be available to download until full payment is received, if applicable.

Tracking Process

AGA adheres to the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) standards for CPE programs, which require an attendance verification process for all training events. 

Virtual Participation (from your home/office)

During virtual sessions, you will be required to click on a series of alertness checks that appear at random times. When these alertness check boxes appear, you will have a short period of time to click on the “Continue Viewing” button. To receive CPE credit, you must pass a number of alertness checks, see below.  

2 CPE credit = passing 6 alertness checks

Announcing the pop-up alertness checks to fellow attendees in the chat box during a session is against NASBA policy. Doing so may cause you to be ineligible to earn the CPE credit.

Session Recordings

Recordings for this training will be available post training for all attendees to access. Please note: Recordings do not offer CPE credits. You must participate in the live streaming or in person to receive credits. Please refer to CPE tracking process above for instructions.

CPE Retrieval

CPE certificates will be available to print online within two weeks after the training, at which time all attendees will receive an email stating that the CPE certificate is ready to download. 

Should you have any questions, please contact education@agacgfm.org. If you need help accessing your AGA account login information, please contact agamembers@agacgfm.org or call 800.242.7211 ext: 301.

Please note:  CPE certificates are available only to attendees who have paid the training event balance in full.
