CPE Credits

Higher Education User Group is registered with the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) as a sponsor of continuing professional education on the National Registry of CPE Sponsors.

The Alliance conference is pleased to announce that we will continue our CPE Credit offerings! We have always been proud of providing our members valuable sessions and information. Each year we have heard an increasing demand that you want to be able to participate for CPE credit. Best of all, these CPE offerings are available at no additional cost above your conference registration fees. All CPE eligible sessions are classified as group-live based delivery method.

Obtaining CPE Credits

In order for Alliance attendees to receive Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits for attending Alliance sessions, the HEUG CPE Team must receive the completed online form by the end of the conference on Wednesday, March 11, 2026. The number of credits will vary depending on which sessions you attend.

  3. Presenters must sign the form as part of the NASBA records process.

It is the responsibility of attendees to become familiar with the standards and procedures of their state’s SBA.
