Acceptance of Nano and Blended Learning and Technical Reviewer Credit

Effective September 1, 2016, the Statement on Standards for Continuing Professional Education (CPE) Programs (Standards) permits the issuance of CPE credit for two new instructional delivery methods: nano and blended learning. The Standards also allow for a technical reviewer of a CPE program to earn CPE credit. See the Standards for full details.

The following table identifies the jurisdictions that accept nano and/or blended learning as well as technical reviewer credit.

A "Yes" in the column means acceptance in the respective jurisdiction's rules and regulations in terms that align with the Standards or the acceptance of incremental (partial) credit learning with no discernment on delivery method..

Click on the "More Info" link to be redirected to the CPE Requirements page for additional information in which the jurisdiction's rules and regulations differ from the Standards. See the "Credit Limitations" section on the CPE Requirements page.

A "No" in the column means that the state board of accountancy has confirmed that the delivery method is not accepted.
