Every year we offer an annual PASS that provides access to all live webinars scheduled for the calendar year, plus any breaking news events as they occur. We schedule a minimum of 30 CPE/CE, including 2 hours of Circular 230 ethics and at least 6 hours of federal tax update. The Masterclass, prior year courses, and those that were recorded as direct-to-on-demand are not included in the PASS. Every live webinar includes a complimentary Q&A session once formal education ends. You are automatically enrolled in the REPLAY version of the edited class if you earned the full CPE/CE. You’ll receive the on demand course if you were unable to attend the live class or if you didn’t earn full credit. Discounts are available for the Masterclass and Direct-to-On-Demand courses added during the calendar year. Learn more about the PASS here and our instructors here.
Check your regular inbox and spam folder for an email from webinars@bigmarker.com. For live webinar events, emails are sent the date of registration, one day prior to the webinar, and 1 hour prior to the webinar.
To prevent additional emails from being directed to spam or junk, we strongly recommend adding BigMarker as an allowed email contact (this is also called “whitelisting”). Add webinars@bigmarker.com and DoNotReply@bigmarker.com as an allowed email contact in your email program. Specific instructions for email programs can be found by clicking here.
If you are still unable to locate your registration link, please contact Geri Bowman at geri@compasstaxeducators.com or Sherrill Trovato at sherrilltrovato@gmail.com at least 30 minutes prior to the live webinar event.
Yes, you can view the webinars as often as desired. Using the blue progress bar that appears as you hover your mouse over the video, you can stop and restart, pause, or rewind to any point in the video you wish to see again.
When possible, materials are emailed the day before the webinar and will come from <noreply@notify.thinkific.com> and can also be downloaded ten minutes before a scheduled webinar from within the event.
Live webinars offer NASBA CPE for CPAs, and most also qualify for IRS CE for EAs (as marked – practice management does not qualify, for example). Compass Tax Educators is also registered with the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy to provide CPE to Texas CPAs. Be aware that our Ethics courses do not meet the state specific CPA ethics requirements; you should check with your state society for your requirements. All your live and on demand CPE/CE certificates can now be found at Accredible.
Your Dashboard contains all your REPLAY (from live webinars you attended) and on demand courses (from those you missed or that you purchased). If you purchased a PASS, courses remain in your Dashboard until we retire them from our library. Generally courses are available for three years from the original recording date unless a law change prevents us from keeping them in our on demand library.
