Frequently Asked Questions

How can I earn continuing education credits once I’ve attended the event?

Attend the sessions in full as they are offered live on Friday, August 21st, 2026 on on demand September 7 – October 31, 2026. Attendance is available for partial credit which means you may attend all or some of the sessions. However, you will only receive credit for the sessions you attend in full. Attendees must be present for each entire session to be eligible to apply for CEUs, and should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the sessions. Starting to watch a session too late while it’s live or stopping early will not meet completion requirements. Our online vFairs platform tracks your platform time. Completing the post-session survey for each individual session attended and the overall event survey is mandatory for credit and must be completed no later than September 18th.
