Courses Fulfilling the CAE Ethics Requirement

Beginning with certificants due to renew in 2020, of the 40 credits required, one credit must be focused on ethics. The course(s) must be directly related to either association or nonprofit as defined by the CAE exam content outline. The course(s) should have "ethics" or "ethical" in the title or within the official course description. Multiple courses may be taken to complete the ethics requirement as long as the total time of the eligible ethics courses adds up to a minimum of 1 CAE credit (1 clock hour), e.g., two 30-minutes courses or two 45-minute courses.

The live sessions and online courses listed below will help you meet that requirement.
