  • Yes! CPE Credits are being offered. Please keep the following in mind:
  • It is your responsibility to ensure you are scanned by conference staff when entering and exiting each session.
  • Every session requires a separate check-in and check-out. Being scanned for one session does not carry over to another.
  • If you leave a session before it concludes, you must scan out. If you return, you must be scanned back in.
  • Staff members equipped with scanners will be stationed at the session entrances and exits, if you are unsure whether you have been scanned, please see a volunteer.
  • CPE Certificates are generated based on your recorded attendance. HSFO cannot award CPE credit for sessions that do not have complete scan records.
  • We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain accurate attendance records and ensure compliance with CPE reporting requirements.
