What type of documentation is acceptable for proof of CDE participation?
Acceptable proof of participation is a certificate or letter from the sponsor of the program, a DANB approval number for the course, or college transcript. For courses attended at a convention, send the CDE printout from the meeting. If the meeting does not provide printouts, note the course completion number given at the end of the presentation next to the entry in the program guide. A copy of your name badge serves as proof of attendance at courses or exhibits. Some Certificants continue to remit the 3×5 CDE Recording Cards. These cards are no longer validDANB eliminated the cards many years ago. Certificants should discard these CDE cards. DANB does not record, retain, or return any unsolicited proof of CDE credits earned (a policy that has been in effect and in print since 1997 as part of the Recertification Requirements).
