CPE Certificates
CPE certificates are distributed at the completion of each course. If it is necessary to leave a course early, notify the Society as well as the instructor and a new CPE certificate will be issued.

The Society reserves the right to not issue CPE if notified by instructor that participant was not in the class.
How Courses are Approved for CPE
The Nevada State Board of Accountancy rules stipulate that a course must increase the professional competency in order for a CPA to receive credit. The CPA must make this determination. The NVCPA is not the regulatory body that sets the rules. The Nevada State Board of Accountancy does not pre-approve any providers or courses for Continuing Professional Education. The responsibility for determining if the course meets the requirements of Continuing Professional Education (Requirements, programs which qualify, controls, reporting, and calculation of hour of credit) rests solely upon the provider and the licensee. Board rules are available at:
www.nvaccountancy.com/education.fx
The NVCPA secures its CPE courses from highly rated national CPE vendors. While these courses are of the highest quality, the NVCPA highly encourages attendees to determine with their individual State Board of Accountancy if the course will qualify for CPE in their respective state.
Evaluations
Evaluation forms are provided at the conclusion of each course and conference. Your comments help the NVCPA provide quality seminars and speakers in a comfortable environment.
