26 April 2013 Can anyone tell me the requirement of CPE Hours. I registerd as a member in Feb 2013 so what is the requirement for me to ensure the compliance of CPE Hours.
Is there is any exemption in the very first year of registration as a member.

27 April 2013 Yes, in the very first year a member is exempt from the compliances of CPE hours.
This is a block of 3 Years. Block is from 2011-2013.
So in your case block will start from 2014-2016 in which you would be required to complete 90/45 hours.

CPE credit Hours requirements for the block of 3 years started with effect from 01-01-2011 to 31-12-2013 to be complied with by different categories of members:

A. All the members (aged less than 60 years) who are holding Certificate of Practice (except all those members who are residing abroad) are required to:

a) Complete at least 90 CPE credit hours in each rolling three-year period of which 60 CPE credit hours should be of structured learning.

b) Complete minimum 20 CPE credit hours of structured learning in each year.

B. All the members (aged less than 60 years) who are not holding Certificate of Practice or all the members who are residing abroad (whether holding Certificate of Practice or not) are required to:

(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.

C. All the members (aged 60 years & above) who are holding Certificate of Practice, are required to:

c) Complete minimum of 20 CPE credit hours being an aggregate of either Structured or Unstructured Learning (as per their choice) in the second and third calendar years i.e. 2012 & 2013.
