Recording CPEUs from FNCE® 2024

Attending educational sessions at the FNCE® can be claimed for continuing professional education units (CPEUs). Follow these guidelines:

  • Learners will record each FNCE® session as a separate activity within the Activity Log.
  • Learners are highly encouraged to use auto entry to record activities.
  • Learners who chose not to use auto entry to record activities will select an activity type based on the date their recertification cycle ends and the format of the education session.
  • Based on the schedule of events, a learner who attends FNCE® 2024 in person could attend a total of 14.5 hours of live educational sessions. Therefore, a learner may claim no more than 14.5 CPEUs under activity type 170/172 for FNCE® 2024.
    Please note: This number is not inclusive of events available as add-ons to FNCE® registration, such as workshops and symposiums.

Live educational sessions and poster sessions can be recorded in the Activity Log via auto entry. Auto entry requires either the activity's six-digit activity number or the activity's QR code.

  1. Locate the activity's six-digit activity number in either the Day-At-A-Glance listings or in the FNCE® app.
  2. Log into your MyCDR account and enter the six-digit activity number on the first screen.
  3. Complete the activity entry and click save.

To record an activity via auto entry with the activity's QR code, follow these steps:
