Understanding CPE Terminology

In-Person

These sessions are presented by a qualified instructor on timely information and best practices, and allows for participants' questions. Conference and seminar courses fall under this format. 

Webinar Icon

Webinar

Via device, this format is similar to an in-person course since you attend at a scheduled time. Webinars include audio and video of the speakers, slides and online materials. Participants interact with the instructor and attendance is monitored throughout the program with tracking codes or polling questions to ensure it qualifies for live group study.

On Demand Icon

Self-Study

This format offers immediate online access to individual courses with state-of-the-art interactivity that will enrich the learning experience. No more than 50 percent of your annual CPE hours can be self-study.

All courses provided by the MICPA and MICPA educational partners (which are found on the MICPA web store) will be entered automatically into your Tracker. Learn more about MICPA CPE policies and procedures.
