A readiness audit can only check what your materials show. Here's what to gather so your evidence file comes back as complete as possible — and a straight answer on what stays out of scope, and why, no matter what you send.
Want a fast first look? Send one course and nothing else. We map it against the Standards and tell you exactly what we could check — and exactly what to add next. You'll see real findings either way.
Send your course →That's the whole quick path. The checklist below is optional.
If you'd rather close more gaps up front, the checklist below shows what helps and what each item unlocks. Add as much or as little as you like — most are facts you already know.
See the checklist ↓You don't need any of this to start — send just your course and the report tells you what's missing. This is a reference list if you'd rather close more gaps up front. Each item notes what it unlocks; add as many or as few as you like.
All module text and the course structure — not just the outline. This is the single biggest one: the outline alone leaves most checks pending.
Unlocks the most — content, length, credit math, engagementSelf-study, group live, or blended. This decides which rules even apply — and keeps the report from grading your course against the wrong ones.
Sets which standards are in scopeThe CPE credit (or CEUs) your course awards today. We recompute it from the materials and compare — the check that most often surfaces a finding.
Unlocks the credit recomputationBasic, Intermediate, Advanced, Update, or Overview.
Unlocks the level & disclosure checksWhat a participant needs going in — or simply "none."
Unlocks the advance-disclosure checksThe exam itself, or at least its question count and passing grade.
Unlocks completion verificationMinutes of any required audio or video — or "none." These count toward credit.
Sharpens the credit mathThe course description or registration page a participant sees before enrolling.
Unlocks the advance-disclosure checksThe completion certificate format and the course's expiration or access policy.
Unlocks the documentation checksThat's the whole list — and you don't need all of it. Send your course with whatever you have in hand, and the report tells you exactly what's still pending.
Send your course →A per-course audit can't check everything, and it shouldn't pretend to. Two kinds of requirement stay out of scope no matter what you send, and your report will name them plainly rather than hide them:
Sponsor-level requirements — things like who reviewed the content, your instructors' qualifications, and your recordkeeping — are evaluated once for your whole organization at the registry level, not course by course.
Rules for other formats — group, blended, nano-learning, pilot-tested, or purchased content — simply don't apply to your course, so they're marked "not applicable," not counted against you.
Your evidence file separates these from anything still awaiting materials, so "pending" is always a short, clear list of what to send next — never a surprise.
