CFP Board — mapped mechanically, receipts included

Yardstick: CFP Board Continuing Education Requirements and CE Sponsor Program Standards (2026 (web))

For CFP Board CE Sponsors. Send one course and ProveStead maps it against the published requirements — every finding keyed to the standard's own locator, every CFP Board CE credit hour recomputed from the materials, and an honest "not evaluable" where the materials can't prove it either way.

The credit math, recomputed

1 CFP Board CE credit hour = 50 minutes
We divided the program's stated completion time by 50 (1 CFP Board CE credit hour = 50 minutes), rounded down to the last full half hour per CFP Board's policy, and compared the result to the CE hours the program claims.

You may be over-awarding CFP Board CE credit — that's the headline check. If the numbers in your materials don't support the CFP Board CE credit hours you award, the report says so, with the arithmetic shown.

Honest scope

Our Class-B catalog for this standard carries 14 requirement records — locators, headings, and our own paraphrases (never the standard's text). 8 are assessable from course materials; the rest are provider-process requirements (your records, oversight, and procedures) which the report marks not_evaluable — never guessed, never faked.

  • Every finding carries the standard's locator and recomputable arithmetic.
  • Absent input is reported as absent — a missing fact is never scored against you.
  • The deliverable is an audit-ready evidence file you can hand to a reviewer.
No approval implied. It implies no CFP Board review, approval, registration, or authorization to award CFP Board CE credit: this report maps the course materials against CFP Board's published CE requirements mechanically and is not an acceptance or registration determination. CFP Board holds final authority over CE Sponsor registration, program acceptance, Ethics CE pre-approval, and how CE credit hours are awarded and accepted.
