What is the NASBA CPE program?
Most states require continuing professional education (CPE) for CPAs to
maintain active licenses. The fundamental purpose of Continuing Professional
Education (CPE) is to maintain and/or increase professional competence. The
National Registry of CPE Sponsors is a program offered by NASBA to recognize
sponsors who offer CPE in accordance with nationally recognized standards.
Individuals seeking CPE credits should contact the state board in which a CPA
holds their license to determine the CPE requirements. There are a variety of
Professional Associations that accept CPE for certification credits, they
include:
Who earns CPE’s?

How do I register for this program?
Courses are available on a Public Education schedule or via client purchase for
on-site presentations. A client of The Radian Group is typically a Global 5000
company or a Non-Profit, Supply-Chain or Educational Institution.
How are CPE credits determined?
CPE credits are measured by program length, with one 50-minute period equal to one CPE credit. One half-credit increments (equal to 25 minutes) are permitted after the first credit has been earned and time is rounded down to the nearest full or half credit hour.
CPE credit for Group-Live programs, such as Radian Compliance courseware, is based on the results of pilot tests conducted to determine average completion time and therefore CPE value is noted on the Radian Education Course Catalog.
Requirements to receive CPE:
State boards of accountancy have final authority on the acceptance of individual courses for CPE credit.
How do I obtain my Certificate of Completion?
As a member of the NASBA Registry of CPE Sponsors, The Radian Group has a responsibility to verify that CPE requirements are met, issue a certificate that includes certain NASBA required information, and maintain course and certificate records for five years. NASBA certificates of completion are not the same as a general certificate of completion for the reasons just mentioned.
