Four hours every three years covering ethical behavior and the understanding of state and national codes of conduct, professional conduct and state licensing regulations.
Four hours every three CPE cycles, not every year. Some vendor sites describe it as annual; the Board, NASBA and the CTCPAs all specify every three years.
Any course covering ethical behaviour and an understanding of the state and national codes of conduct, professional conduct, and state licensing regulations. There is no mandatory Connecticut-specific course.
The reporting period runs 1 July to 30 June annually and the licence renews by 31 December. You need 40 hours in each annual period, and the online renewal system opens after 1 October.
Within three years of the close of the licence year in which you last took one. Because it runs on your own three-year clock rather than a statewide cycle, keep your own record — the Board does not maintain or provide your reported CPE totals.
No. The requirement may be met through any course covering ethical behaviour and an understanding of the state and national codes of conduct, professional conduct, and state licensing regulations.
You may show compliance by meeting the CPE requirements of your principal place of business during the last renewal. If that jurisdiction has no CPE requirements, Connecticut's rules apply in full.
