New CCH CPE Assistant: The Complete Online CPE Management Solution

(RIVERWOODS, ILL., August 16, 2012) – Meeting and monitoring continuing professional education (CPE) goals is now even easier for tax, accounting and audit professionals in firms of all sizes, with CCH’s new online CPE Assistant™. It’s an all-in-one solution for tracking employee progress, reducing expenses regarding certifications, meeting deadlines, saving time and advancing business. CCH, a Wolters Kluwer business is a leading global provider of tax, accounting and audit information, software and services (CCHGroup.com).

“When we’ve asked our customers about CPE, they’ve told us that lowering administrative costs and having the ability to oversee everyone’s compliance progress in one convenient place are things they want,” said Mark Hevrdejs, Director, CCH Learning/CPE. “Seamless integration between CPE Assistant and CCH Learning Center tremendously simplifies the process of accessing CPE content and tracking certifications to make sure compliance goals are met – whether you are a firm’s learning administrator or an individual tax and accounting professional.”

Easy Professional Development Tracking

CPE Assistant identifies rules and requirements for all 50 CPA regulatory groups that mandate CPE as well as RTRP, EA, CFP, CLE and other certifications. Key administrative features include:

• Monitoring CPE hours completed against total hours needed;
• Calculating limits on training formats and topics;
• Tracking all staff training and progress from a single system – CCH Learning Center data automatically populates into CPE Assistant;
• Storing CPE certificates for easy retrieval and printing;
• Automating employee status reminder emails; and
• Receiving course recommendations from CCH Learning Center.

The solution also enables training and compliance administrators to report multiple-user CPE completions for firm sponsored training events. And when combined with CCH Learning Center resources, professionals have access to more than 300 self-study training courses to help increase proficiency in core topics and emerging issues – all while earning CPE.
