Continuing Education Credits

PDH, CM, AND LU CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDITS/HOURS AWARDED THROUGH ACC

As a registered/approved continuing education provider through RCEP, APA, and AIA, ACC manages the reporting of Symposium attendance for eligible attendees to earn 11 PDH, CM, or LU credits/hours.

ATTENDEES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR EARNING THEIR CREDITS/HOURS

While ACC reports credits/hours for eligible attendees, it is the sole responsibility of the attendee to meet the criteria to earn credits/hours – and by the outlined deadlines. It is not the responsibility of ACC to send accreditation reminders, notify attendees that they did not meet the requirements, or accommodate individuals who fail to meet the outlined deadlines to earn credits/hours. 

Attendees are responsible for ensuring their earned credits/hours have been reported by ACC by April 5, 2024. 

To earn the 11 PDH, CM, or LU credits/hours, participants are required to both meet – and complete – the following accreditation criteria by the deadline of March 22, 2024.

Partial and/or late credits/hours for the 2024 Symposium will not be awarded for any reason.

• Be a paid registrant for the entire three-day 2024 Symposium;
• Attend both plenary sessions on March 5 and 6; one workshop session during each of the five concurrent workshop sessions on March 5 and 6, and both the TSA and FAA open mic sessions on March 7; and
• Complete and submit no later than March 22, 2024 both the attendance verification and evaluation survey that will be emailed by ACC to all attendees on March 11, 2024.

EMAIL DELIVERY TO ATTENDEES OF REQUIRED ATTENDANCE VERIFICATION AND EVALUATION SURVEY

Surveys will be emailed by ACC to attendees on Monday, March 11, 2024. Within the email, links will be included to access both the attendance survey and the evaluation survey. Both must be completed and submitted by the deadline of March 22, 2024. Late surveys will not be accepted. 

Attendees are responsible for timely reaching out to ACC at training@acconline.org if the survey email is not received as it may be directed by their company firewalls to spam/junk email in-boxes. ACC is not responsible for surveys not received by participants or for delays in communications sent to AAAE vs. ACC as the continuing education provider. ACC is not responsible for sending reminders for completion to attendees.

RECEIVING PDH CREDITS/CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION

ACC reports attendance for PDH credits for eligible participants directly to RCEP.net the week of April 1, 2024. Participants will receive an automated email directly from RCEP/ACEC with notification of reporting of attendance/PDH credits by ACC. Participants can then log-in to their RCEP account and download/print a copy of their certificate of completion. If the participant does not have an existing account with RCEP, one is automatically created for them when ACC reports Symposium attendance.   The automated email sent to the participant from RCEP will include details on how to log-in to their new account, along with a temporary account password. PLEASE NOTE: ACC does not have access to the RCEP account of any participant, nor information on account passwords. Participants will need to contact RCEP directly at (202) 347-7474 for assistance, or can visit RCEP.net, enter their work email address in the log-in, and click “Forgot Password.” 

No individual may report earned PDH credits to state licensing boards for the 2024 Symposium that have not been reported to RCEP by ACC. If this happens, ACC will contact the state licensing board and contest the earning of the PDH credits.

PARTICIPANTS MUST SELF-REPORT CM CREDITS TO APA

Attendees holding the AICP professional designation must self-report their eligible CM credits to the American Planning Association (APA) for participating in the 2024 Symposium. The APA course # for the Symposium is 9285619.

 RECEIVING LU HOURS

ACC reports attendance and LU/HSW hours for eligible AIA members directly to AIA CES Course #2024ACCSYMP within ten (10) business days of the conclusion of the 2023 Symposium. AIA certificates of completion are available upon request through March 22, 2024 by contacting training@acconline.org.

DIRECT ACCREDITATION QUESTIONS TO ACC

For any questions related to PDH, CM, or LU accreditation credits/hours for the 2024 Symposium, questions should be directed to ACC at training@acconline.org, as these credits/hours are not available through AAAE.
