Hi guys!!!!

I got registered on September, 2012 as member..... Due to some family issues, i haven't taken up any job yet...So far I haven't undergone any CPE hours....Please clarify how should I comply with the CPE hours. How many hours do i need to take this year and so on.....Please don't explain in the language of ICAI. I know that a member not in practice shd. comply with 45 hrs in total rolling period of 3 years and 10 hrs per year........

And what is rolling period of 3 years? Is it the same for everyone or does it change according to members' year of registration?

How many hours is permissible for self study at home?

Thanks in advance........

(a) Complete at least an aggregate of 45 CPE credit hours of either structured or unstructured learning (as per their choice) in each rolling three-year period (i.e. from 1/1/2011 to 31/12/2013)

(b) Complete minimum of 10 CPE credit hours being an aggregate of either structured or unstructured learning (as per their choice) in each calendar year.

As per the revised Statement on Continuing Professional Education, the CPE requirements shall not apply to:

A member who attains the age of 60 years during a particular calendar year.
A member, for the year during which he gets his membership for the first time.
A member or class of members to whom the CPEC may in their absolute discretion grant full/partial exemption either specific/general, on account of facts and circumstances of the case which in their opinion prevent such person(s) from compliance with the requirements of CPE as given in this Statement.
