CEU Vendor Information

A complete application (agenda, post-test (if required), and speaker information) must be received 21-30 days prior to marketing or first event date. Incomplete applications received 21 days or less, prior to the marketing or event date, will be charged a $50.00 late submission fee.

Once the application is received from the online submission, it will be placed into a two-week review cycle. If the marketing or event date is within the two-week review cycle, a $50.00 fee will be charged to fast track the application. The approval is valid for 12 months. The event may be repeated during the year.

Status of all applications will appear on the overview screen of your CEU Vendor page. The status includes titles and an indicator icon that designates the titles as Pending, Approved, Denied, Withdrawn, Incomplete, and Expiring Soon.

You will receive an email with the final determination of your application. If denied, withdrawn, or incomplete the email will state the reason for the determination or the request for additional information to continue the review process. If approved, you will be notified that your approval documents are available on your CEU Vendor page. Approved titles will have the start and finish (expiration) dates along with a drop down menu allowing you to view your PDF copies of the Approval Documents: Approval Letter, Certificate, and Invoice.

If your request is for a multi-specialty conference with breakout sessions or multi-breakout session event, you can request a CEU Code Card in place of individual PDF Certificates. You will receive two PDF files, one specifically for the attendee with just titles and CEU values and one for the vendor that includes the assigned index numbers.

Please give all attendees a copy of the original PDF certificate or CEU Code Card sent to you by AAPC. These are the only documents AAPC will accept from a member for CEUs. The documents are not to be altered, other than adding the name of the attendee, the date of the course, and the approved index number if it is not recorded. The CEU Code Card may also require session titles and specialty assignments be added.
