Because of a recent change in Delaware law, webinars/webcasts will qualify as formal (i.e., group or live) credit if:

  • An outline is prepared in advance and the plan sponsor agrees to preserve a copy for five years or the outline is provided to the participant or both.
  • The program is at least an hour (a fifty-minute period) in length.
  • The program is conducted by a qualified instructor or discussion leader.
  • A record of registration or attendance is maintained for five years or the participant is furnished with a statement of attendance, or both.
  • There is an opportunity for live interaction between participants and the instructor and provided that a certificate is issued.

Under Delaware law, self-study programs that provide evidence of satisfactory completion will qualify for credit, with the amount of credit to be determined by the Board of Accountancy. Only programs that provide sufficient evidence that the work has actually been accomplished will be accepted. The maximum credit toward meeting Delaware's continuing professional education requirement with self-study programs cannot exceed 30% of the total requirement (i.e., 24 of the 80 hours).
