Group Internet-Based Attendance Policy:

Although the ACFE New Jersey 9, Inc. acknowledges that it is the participant’s responsibility to report the appropriate number of credits earned, it consistently maintains a process to monitor individual attendance at group programs to guarantee the correct allocation of CPE credits. The organization recognizes that a participant’s self-certification of attendance alone is insufficient. When conducting group internet-based programs, three polling questions per CPE credit are implemented to establish a real-time monitoring mechanism that verifies participant engagement during the course. These three polling questions per CPE credit are administered at sufficiently frequent intervals and are unpredictable, ensuring that attendees remain engaged throughout the session. Attendee participation is tracked via SLIDO, an application that facilitates real-time engagement through live polls, Q&As, and quizzes. It is the responsibility of attendees to accurately report CPE credits based on their actual time attending the sessions. While the ACFE New Jersey 9, Inc. recognizes that it is the participant’s responsibility to report the appropriate number of credits earned, the ACFE New Jersey 9, Inc. continually maintains a process to monitor individual attendance at group programs to ensure the correct number of CPE credits are assigned. The ACFE New Jersey 9, Inc. recognizes that the participant’s self-certification of attendance alone is not sufficient.

When offering group internet-based programs, we implement three polling questions per CPE credit to ensure a real-time monitoring mechanism that verifies attendees are participating during the course. The three polling questions per CPE credit are at a sufficient frequency and lack predictability to ensure the attendees have been engaged throughout the course. The attendee’s completed interactivity is tracked via SLIDO, an application that ensures real-time engagement with participants with live polls, Q&As, and quizzes. It is the attendees' responsibility to accurately report CPE based on actual time attending conference sessions.

After the program, you will receive a short survey asking you to evaluate the programs. The CPE certificate is generated upon completion of the survey and may be printed or saved as a PDF. You must take the survey to get your CPE certificate - we are not able to print CPE certificates for you. The survey will be sent to the email address used to register for the conference.
