Credits

 

Purpose:  The Credits tab tracks the breakdown of the credits available for the event into credit categories. 

 

Launch Point:  This tab can be launched from:

 

•      Events → File Maintenance →

 

Example:

Credit Category 1-6:  This information comes from the vendor and specifies the category, or categories, this event fulfills.  The list in this field is user-defined.

 

Credit Hours 1-6:  This information comes from the vendor and specifies the number of credit hours assigned to each credit category.  Usually every 50 minutes of class time equates to one credit hour.

 

Approval Code 1-6:  If there is an approval code associated with this credit category, it can be entered here.

 

Credit Note:  Additional note field for any miscellaneous information about the credits.

 

Calculate Sessions:  When the credits for a conference are to be calculated for each registrant from the session registrations, check this box.  Note:  this field will only be visible on conferences (ie..Sessions on the Name tab is set to Yes).

 

Note:  The sum of the credit hours on this tab cannot exceed the Credit Hours on the Name tab.

 

Note:  Contact CDS if you wish to track non-CPE related credit categories.
