Continuing Education Credits

What happens if I am late?
The Academy for Professional Excellence’s Continuing Education (CE) provider agreement stipulates that participants cannot receive CEs if they miss more than 15 minutes of a CE approved event. However, your ticket is still valid and you are welcome to join the conference and participate. Visit our website here for more information on our CE policies.

When will I be able to get my CEs?
CE certificates are available for download on the RIHS Learning Management System (LMS) one week after the conference.

I attended the Conference, but it’s not letting me get my CEs. Why won’t I get CEs?
Attendees who miss more than 15 minutes of any portion of an in-person event are not eligible to receive CEs. Attendance is tracked through the online conferencing platform. Attendees must also complete an evaluation to be eligible to receive CEs.

Please see our Continuing Education section for more information.
