Qualifying for Recognition
To qualify for CPD status, you must earn 60 points every two years. Points
are awarded for a variety of activities—passing exams or courses,
teaching, writing, conducting research, serving in industry organizations,
serving as graders or on IIA/AICPCU Exam Review Committees, attending
chapter meetings, CPCU Society Center for Leadership courses, workshops, and more. The CPD application lists a wide variety
of activities with corresponding point values.
Applying for CPD—Introducing
Our New Online CPD Application!
The CPCU Society and American Institute for CPCU are constantly striving to serve its members more efficiently,
and we believe that you will be very satisfied with this new online service!
Now, it is easier and more convenient than ever to track the extra activities
and educational events in which you participate to maintain your CPD status.
Simply log into your
record, and bring up the CPD application. You can scroll down and see
the various categories and points awarded for each activity. Follow the
prompts and fill in your activity information.
The convenience of
this application is that you can fill it in, online, as you complete the
various activities. Once you have acquired 60 CPD points, and it is within
30 days of your date of expiration, you simply click the “Submit”
button, and your application is automatically sent to the American Institute
for CPCU, where it will be processed. You will still receive a congratulatory
letter from the American Institute after you have been CPD qualified.
If you would like a copy of your application for your records, be sure
to print it out prior to submission. You will also be informed of your
new expiration date, which is approximately two years after your qualified
date. Please read
the specific directions prior to filling out your online
CPD application.

Providing Documentation
You're no longer required to submit documentation for activities qualifying
you for CPD recognition. Approximately 5 percent of CPD applications will
be audited randomly each year, however, so you should save records relating
to CPD activities.
Qualifying Automatically
Automatic qualification is granted to all CPCU candidates after passing
their final CPCU exam, and is also granted to any CPCU who accumulates
enough CPD credits through IIA programs, such as passing two associate
level exams in one semester. If you're a new CPCU designee, your qualification
is automatic and you do not need to submit an application for the first
2 years.
Requalificating & Renewing
When the expiration of your qualification period approaches, you will
receive an e-mail notifying you of same.
