Over the past couple of years, knowing how to put on different CPE events was difficult at best. After all, the pandemic made it incredibly risky to hold such conferences in person. And while some might still have taken place, a good number were instead put on hold, pushed off to a later date. Now, as the world is moving into 2023, many CPE events are again on the calendar. In fact, there are probably too many to fully list here. Because between those hosted by major nationwide organizations and others from state societies, there seem to be plenty of options. So, we’ve chosen to list nine which might be most helpful for CPAs looking to jump into their CPE.
CPE Events to Attend in 2023
Of course, not every CPE event is easily accessible for CPAs across the nation. They have to account for travel costs, lodging, and a host of other fees. So, it makes sense to look for conferences and other activities within close proximity. Because of that, we’ve tried to highlight a number of CPE events across the U.S. Fortunately, some of the events listed also have a virtual format. So, even if someone cannot attend in person, they have the option of doing so online.

Our Alternative to Conferences and Other In-Person Events
Now, the cost of continuing education can be fairly high – particularly when it comes to in-person CPE events.

And with topics ranging from Human Resources and Medicare to in-depth accounting procedures, our shop is varied.
Whether you choose to attend a CPE event in 2023 comes down to personal need and preference. Sometimes, they represent easy ways of collecting continuing education credits. Other times, they may be more of a hassle than is worth it. But ultimately, having the option to attend a conference or seminar means CPAs have more paths at their disposal. So, be sure to formulate a plan for CPE that fits you best.
