Webcasts and Self-Study

Looking for an alternative to in-person CPE events? The NJSCPA Education Foundation has partnered with several providers of live webcasts, on-demand webinars and self-study programs.

Self-Study CPE Credit Calculation Reminder
When calculating self-study CPE credits, please note the following excerpts from the New Jersey State Board of Accountancy's official CPE regulations:

Credit shall be granted at the rate of one credit for every 50 minutes of correspondence and individual self study program participation.
A maximum of 60 credit hours of continuing professional education may be obtained in correspondence and other individual self study programs in each triennial renewal period.

Webcasts

Accounting Continuing Professional Education Network (ACPEN)

ACPEN offers two-hour CPE seminars via live webcast. To view the schedule of seminars, click here.

As you look through the catalog, you will note that there is an ACPEN schedule that includes the full-day courses, plus three Live Webcast Replay Dates. A Live Webcast Replay is a complete replaying of an ACPEN course that was produced earlier in the year using the recorded video and audio from the original course, in toto, as the content.

New "Credit Earned" feature now available which lists all courses that you have completed with a link to all of your CPE certificates.

Technical Support is available during live webcast events as well as before and after the event. For technical support, please contact the ACPEN Help Desk at 1-800-747-1719. For less urgent questions, you can also submit an email request to help@acpen.com, and a technician will contact you within one business day. The Help Desk is available to assist you Monday—Friday from 8:00am to 6:00pm CST, excluding holidays. On the day of your webcast in addition to these hours, they will be available by phone at least 60 minutes before and 60 minutes after the webcast.
