Policies

There is no additional fee for CEs to the attendee. The conference has covered all costs associated with the application process and administration of the credits. Attendees requesting CEs must abide by the policies and procedures set by the conference office. These will be detailed in the conference program booklet and appear below. All boards prohibit early certificate distribution. The certificate distribution policies of the conference have been developed to meet the requirements set by the licensing boards, and the conference office does not have the ability to deviate from these policies.

As it is ultimately the responsibility of each licensee to keep abreast of the current rules and regulations of his/her respective licensing board, please contact your state licensing board with any questions regarding licensure renewal, continuing education requirements, and requirements for acceptable continuing education courses, programs and sponsors. Expenses for continuing education, when taken to maintain and improve professional skills, are tax deductible. Consult your accountant for complete details.
