Why buy a pass?

Spend this year's budget

Buy now and you have 12 months from purchase to use the credits. Put this year's training budget to work and take the courses next year.

One receipt

One purchase is far easier to expense, or to get reimbursed for, than a year of separate course orders.

Live or on demand, one balance

Common questions

Can I use a pass for the Federal Tax Update?

No. The Federal Tax Update, including its conference, broadcasts, days and bundles, is paid by card only. Your pass is good for nearly everything else we sell.

What can I spend the credits on?

Any CPE Today course or event that takes credits: live webinars, replays and events. A course costs its CPE hours, so a two-credit course spends two credits. A few programs, such as the Federal Tax Update, are sold for money only and can't be paid with credits.

How long do my credits last?

12 months from the day you buy the pass. Your balance, and when each credit expires, is under Credits in your account.

Can the pass pay for the course I'm buying today?

Yes. Put a pass and a course in the same cart and the pass pays for the course at checkout. You pay for the pass and keep the rest of its credits.

What if I'm a few credits short?

When your credits already cover most of an order, checkout offers the few you're missing rather than charging a whole course to your card.

Can I use my credits for a colleague?

Credits belong to the person who bought them and pay for that person's own seat. Anyone else attending needs their own seat or their own pass. Training a team? See Corporate & Group CPE.

Can I buy more than one pass?

Yes. Credits from every pass add to one balance, and the credits that expire soonest are spent first.
