It’s summer, meaning it’s also the season to get your CPE and CE credits done! To ensure that earning those credits don’t interfere with your summer vacation, we came up with a list of a few training sessions that will enable you to enjoy some down time while you’re staying up to speed on tax and accounting law, practices, and technology.

Western CPE

Western CPE offers a number of conferences in exotic locations, including Montego Bay, Jamaica; Jackson Hole, Wyoming; Yellowstone National Park; and Sonoma County, Calif. The conferences offer a mixture of CPE credit with tours and local activities. Whether you are in the mood for action and adventure, or rest and relaxation, one of these conferences may fit the bill!

Global CPE

Global CPE also offers education at destinations! With conferences from Gatlinburg, Tenn., to Santa Fe, N.M., Global CPE hopes to offer “a week of business and pleasure” that helps you meet your CPE requirements and come back to work refreshed.

NTI

NTI is another provider of what the company calls “resort CPE.” NTI offers conferences in destinations such as Bermuda, St. Kitts, Hawaii and even the Mediterranean. Along with plenty of course time, NTI builds in leisure time so attendees can enjoy their destinations.

QuickBooks Online Certification and QuickBooks Online Advanced Certification

The QuickBooks Online Certification course is geared toward accounting professionals who anticipate having or have QuickBooks Online clients – and will earn you five CPE credits. The Advanced Certification course is geared toward accounting professionals who are already QuickBooks Online Certified ProAdvisors and will earn you 10 CPE credits. These free courses are designed and taught by QuickBooks Online Advanced Certified ProAdvisors to help prepare for the QuickBooks Online Certification exam and Advanced Certification exam. They are in locations throughout the United States for your convenience, but you could travel to destinations like Washington, D.C., or Miami, Fla., to experience the training in a new destinations.

I hope this helps you find the educational destination you may be looking for!
