FAQs

How do I select the EDsessions I want to attend? Do I need to sign up in advance?

Seating in EDsessions is on a first-come basis. If a classroom fills to capacity, standing room may not exceed fire marshal limits.

How do I receive Continuing Education Credits (CEUs) or Learning Units (LUs)?

EDsessions are included with full conference registrations and day passes only. If you provide a certification number during registration, AIA LUs and HSW credits will be reported within 30 days after EDspaces.

GBCI credits and IDCEC CEUs are self-reported. If you need a certificate to report participation, please email Adrienne Dayton, EDmarket Vice President of Communications and Education.
