Each PD Passport is equivalent to the number of credits as indicated above of passport-valid Professional Development seminars. These credits can be any combination of CPABC seminars that are passport valid. Passport credits are also applicable towards our web-based PD seminars – refer to the actual seminar(s) for number of credits to be used.
2025-2026 PD Passports are only valid for seminars held between September 1, 2025 and August 31, 2026.
Any unused portions of the PD Passport(s) cannot be refunded or credited for PD seminars or products. Passports cannot be used retroactively for seminars taken prior to their purchase. No other discount program or offering may be used in conjunction with the PD Passports.
A small number of CPABC PD seminars may not be passport valid – these seminars will be indicated as PD Passport Invalid. Note that CPABC Executive Programs and Chapter Events and Chapter PD are all PD Passport Invalid.
The Personal PD Passport, Mini Passport, PD+ Pass, and PD Academic Pass are non-transferable – the holder may not send an alternate to attend a seminar in their place. The Flexi PD Passport is transferable, but we would appreciate receiving advance notice of any changes for recording accuracy.
For Flexi Passports, you must designate an individual as your official passport contact person. This individual, and no other, will be authorized to receive information on the passport usage, including registration details made under that passport.
PD Passport holders who want to attend a seminar using their passport must register in advance for all seminars. Walk-ins are not permitted. All registrations are handled on a "first-come, first-serve" basis and some courses may fill up early.
Requests for course cancellations and/or transfers must be received in writing before 9:00am no less than 3 full business days prior to the course start date to be eligible for a full passport credit reinstatement. Statutory holidays and weekends are not considered business days. Cancellation and/or transfer requests received after this deadline will not be accepted. These requests will not be eligible for any refunds nor credits, and the full passport credit usage will be assessed.
Substitution of attendee is permitted up to and including the day of the seminar, with the exception of registrations made through a Personal Passport, Mini Passport, PD+ Pass, or the PD Academic Pass which are all non-transferable.
On-Demand course registrations are not eligible for cancellations or refunds once access has been provided.
There will be no refunds issued on PD Passport purchases once the order for the Passport has been processed.
CPABC reserves the rights to the PD Passport. Inappropriate use of the PD Passport will result in the immediate cancellation of privileges with no refund.
