Continuing Education Credits (CECs) at CMPX 2026

CMPX 2026 offers attendees the opportunity to earn Continuing Education Credits (CECs) through a wide range of educational sessions taking place March 25–27, 2026.

Eligible Sessions

All Learning Sessions and Workshops are eligible for CECs. Sessions must:

  • Focus on HVAC/R, plumbing, building codes, energy efficiency, or industry best practices.

  • Are delivered by recognized instructors or subject matter experts.

  • Are at least 30 minutes in duration.

  • Do not include sales or promotional content.

How Attendance Is Tracked

Attendance is recorded through the official CMPX badge scanning system:

  • Scan your badge when entering the session

  • Some sessions may also require a scan-out

  • Attendees must be present for at least 80% of the session

  • If scanning is not available, a manual backup process will be used by staff

  • IMPORTANT! Badges must be scanned by an attendant at each session to verify attendance; certificates will only be issued for verified sessions. 

Earning Credits

You will earn 1 CEC = 1 hour of instructional time, or ½ CEC = 30 minutes of instructional time.

Credits are automatically calculated based on your recorded attendance.

There is no limit to the number of credits you may earn.
