Catch up on what Bob has to say:

As all Michigan CPAs know, the deadline for earning your 40-hours of continuing education is June 30, 2020. THIS DATE WILL NOT BE EXTENDED! Fortunately, through our initial advocacy efforts with the initial COVID-19 emergency declaration, the Michigan Department of Licensing & Regulatory Affairs (LARA) has lifted the 50% self-study cap through the end of this education cycle. As such, the State of Michigan will recognize all CPE taken electronically. (Read the LARA notice here.) 

In response, the MICPA is offering a wide selection of virtual CPE options to ensure you have your 40 hours before the June 30 deadline. And remember, all MICPA CPE is automatically added into your MICPA Tracker, the easiest way to track, manage and report your CPE to the State. We have your virtual solutions! 

In order to continue serving you, today we’re launching an additional membership benefit called the “CPE Concierge Service.” We know that it can be a bit complex to find the online webinars, seminars or conferences that you need. Whether you are looking to complete your 40-hour requirement, find specific topics or simply have a question… we’re here for you. Let an MICPA CPE specialist help you find the right courses to meet the June 30 deadline. This is something we’ve always done when our members have emailed or called us, but we want to make sure EVERYONE that needs help can take advantage of this membership benefit. 

To get started, please visit our CPE Concierge web page here. We have a short form for you to complete that will give us some helpful information to start with. One of our CPE Specialists will contact you within 1-2 business days and get you set up! Prefer not to complete the form? You can simply call us at 248.267.3747 between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM EST. We’re happy to help! Please take advantage of this member benefit! 

All the best, 

Bob
