Know Ohio’s Continuing Professional Development (CPD) law:  For Ohio licensees, the Ohio State Board of Registration for Professional Engineers and Surveyors determines the acceptance of individual courses for CPD credit.  The State Board of Registration does not preapprove any courses nor course providers.  However, EFO programs are designed to meet Ohio law and State Board of Registration rules.  This program also meets CPD requirements in many other states.  There are 10.5 CPD hours associated with this program.  Professionals should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their attendance in the program.  Be sure to sign our on-site attendance sheet each day so that your attendance may be verified in case you are audited by the State of Ohio.

Cancellation policy:  Registrants may withdraw from the workshop with full refund less $75 processing fee provided EFO is notified in writing at least 72 hours prior to the start of the program.  After that time, registrants are responsible for the full registration fee.
