Academy at Summit

What is Academy?

The Community Summit Academy program has been created as an add on to your registration at the event enabling you to achieve three primary things:

  1. Deep dive into a specific Microsoft business application area for an intensive, and often hands on, “master class” style training program
  2. Connect you with an expert instructor in the category that will guide you through how this training can be brought back to your business
  3. Deliver CPE credits that can enable you to stay current on your continuing education requirements

Academy is an incredible chance to leverage exclusive classroom training with curated content to help Dynamic users learn, grow, and develop. It’s that simple! For an additional fee, we offer a variety of learning opportunities for all stages throughout your professional journey with Microsoft Business Applications.

Academy supplements your Community Summit experience providing you with increased ability to future proof your skillset so you can amplify the results you deliver. This classroom training is your golden opportunity to get deep, hands-on learning for a focused topic that will maximize your investment to join the user community.

Two-fold Value: CPE Credits are offered for Academy classes.

 

CPE credits are delivered through our partners at the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) as a sponsor of continuing professional education on the National Registry of CPE Sponsors.

Our 2023 classes are outlined below, featuring the instructor, title and overview of the classes and the learning objectives aligned with each class, which are the basis of the CPE credits you will earn.

Wait, what’s CPE?

CPE stands for Continuing Professional Education. This impacts most CPAs, CMAs and other accounting professionals. Individuals in these roles are required to attain a set number of CPE credits each year to maintain their designated professional status.

Academy Registration has closed for most courses.
