CPE is calculated based on a 50-minute hour, rounded down to the nearest whole or half credit based on NASBA policy. The available credit, based on NASBA policy, is in italics on the request form. Individual states have the final authority on the acceptance of credits, and some states may not accept half credit hours.
TMA Accreditation
The Turnaround Management Association is registered with the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) as a sponsor of continuing professional education on the National Registry of CPE Sponsors. State boards of accountancy have final authority on the acceptance of individual courses for CPE credit. Complaints regarding registered sponsors may be submitted to the National Registry of CPE Sponsors through its website: www.learningmarket.org. There is no prerequisite or advance study necessary to attend the 2011 Annual Convention or to qualify for continuing education credit. For more information regarding administrative policies such as complaint and refund, please contact TMA at 1-312-578-6900.

Individual State Accreditation
A chart reflecting the status of individual state CLE applications is available in the TMA registration area. Please note:
· The following states do not require CLE: Alaska, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Nebraska, New Jersey and South Dakota.
· California and New York are “approved jurisdiction” states, meaning credit is awarded based on the approval of other CLE states, unless the program is being held in-state, in which case hours will be reflected on the chart in the TMA registration area.
· Arizona and Kansas do not require sponsor applications. Rather, attorneys must apply individually to the State Bar for accreditation.
· California, Florida, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington and West Virginia also require state-specific attendance forms. Should you require one of these forms, please place your request with TMA staff at the registration desk and you will be sent a form post-conference.
