RACE® Fees, Standards, and Policies
About RACE® Programs
A program provides an educational event where participants receive a CE certificate upon completion, whether live or on-demand. The committee calculates RACE program application fees based on the total hours of programming you submit for review. For programs offering multiple sessions, such as a conference, fees are based on the total hours available, not the hours attended by an individual participant.
Programs are approved for two years from the approval date and may be repeated during the approval period with notice to AAVSB.
Variations in program content and/or number of CE hours are not the same program and must be submitted as new Program Application(s).
