Session Attendance Tracking:
Don't forget to track your session attendance at ACI sessions. Use the session attendance tracking form located at the back of the program book provided at the convention. This form can be submitted to state boards that allow self-reporting of Continuing Education activities as evidence of participation. Please note: New York does not accept self-reporting. In most cases, 1 contact hour is equal to 1 Professional Development Hour (PDH). Check with your state board for acceptance criteria.
