Overview

Adviser CE courses are updated and offered in yearly editions. This article explains how courses differ from year to year, how credits are counted, and what to know before enrolling—especially if you have taken Adviser CE courses before.

How Adviser CE Courses Are Designed

  • Each Adviser CE course is created by certified professionals

  • Courses are designed for:

  • Individual advisers

  • Teams and firms

  • All courses are:

  • Text-based

  • On-demand, allowing you to complete them at your own pace

Compliance & Credit Eligibility

  • Every Adviser CE course is fully compliant with NASAA requirements

  • Per NASAA guidelines:

  • Each course may only be completed once for credit

  • A course will only count toward CE credits one time, regardless of whether it is taken in the same year, or In a different year

Course Editions & Yearly Differences

  • Adviser CE courses are offered in different yearly editions, which are identified by the year listed in the course title

  • The year listed:

  • Helps differentiate editions of courses

  • Does not restrict you to completing the course only within that calendar year

Important:

  • Courses with different years listed are different courses

Bundles vs. Individual Courses

  • Adviser CE offers:

  • 12-credit bundles (6-credits of Products & Practices + 6-credits of Ethics & Professional Responsibility)

  • 6-credit bundles

  • Individual courses

  • While these options share the same structure and learning experience, the courses themselves differ by edition and year

  • Credit eligibility is determined by the specific course edition, not the bundle type

Guidance for Returning Customers

If you have previously enrolled with Adviser CE:

  • Review your completed courses carefully

  • Make sure you do not register for the same course(s) you have already completed, as they will not count for additional credit

Guidance for New Customers

If you are new to Adviser CE:

  • You are welcome to enroll in and complete any available course

  • Simply choose the course or bundle that best fits your CE needs

Key Takeaways

  • Courses differ from year to year and are identified by their edition

  • Each course can only be completed once for CE credit

  • Course editions are labeled by year for identification, not completion deadlines

  • Always review your dashboard before enrolling if you have taken Adviser CE courses in the past
