  1. Under NASBA CPE standards, which of the following is an acceptable method for monitoring attendance at a group-live program?

    Answer: Periodic sign-in sheets collected during the session

    NASBA recommends monitoring attendance through periodic sign-in sheets or polling throughout the session, not just at the beginning or end.

  2. A CPA completes a 2-hour CPE course on 'Stress Management for Finance Professionals.' How should this be classified for CPE purposes?

    Answer: Non-technical — Personal Development

    Stress management courses fall under Personal Development, a non-technical field of study, as they relate to personal wellness rather than accounting or auditing competency.

  3. Which of the following best defines a 'nano-learning' CPE program under NASBA standards?

    Answer: A short-format program of 10 minutes or less addressing a single learning objective

    Nano-learning programs are short-format courses, typically 10 minutes or less, focused on a single learning objective and awarded 0.2 CPE credits per qualifying unit.

  4. A group-live CPE program offers a lunch break of 45 minutes. How should this break time be treated in the credit calculation?

    Answer: Excluded from CPE credit calculations entirely

    Break time, including meals, is not instructional time and must be excluded from CPE credit calculations regardless of whether networking occurs.

  5. An instructor delivers a CPE session and realizes mid-course that participants have diverse experience levels, with some finding the material too basic. What classroom management strategy is MOST appropriate?

    Answer: Incorporate advanced application exercises and real-world case studies to deepen engagement

    Introducing advanced application exercises and case studies allows the instructor to increase depth and challenge for experienced participants while still delivering the core learning objectives.

  6. Which of the following is a key instructor responsibility when facilitating a CPE course that includes group discussion activities?

    Answer: Ensure discussions remain focused on the stated learning objectives

    Instructors must guide group discussions to remain aligned with the program's learning objectives while still encouraging participant engagement.

  7. A CPE sponsor discovers after a program that the instructor was not qualified under NASBA standards. What is the sponsor's REQUIRED action?

    Answer: Notify participants and offer a refund or a replacement compliant program

    When a program fails to meet NASBA quality standards, the sponsor must notify affected participants and remedy the situation, typically by offering a refund or a qualifying replacement program.
