How are my credits reported?
Continuing Education Credits are reported to AIA and IDCEC once per week. To ensure your completed course credits are reported to AIA and/or IDCEC, you must provide A+DM with your AIA and/or IDCEC member number. You can verify/update this information in your Profile under Update Account. If you are missing a credit, please contact A+DM’s Registrar here.

What type of CEUs do you offer?
AIA:
All courses offered via A+DM are approved for AIA Learning Units (LUs). Credits earned upon completion of a course are reported by A+DM to AIA for all AIA members.
IDCEC:
In addition to AIA approved content, any of our courses that offer IDCEC credit are reported by A+DM to IDCEC for all IDCEC members within 7 days after completion.
ADDITIONAL CONTINUING EDUCATION PARTNERSHIPS:
A+DM is proud to be an approved educational provider for AIA and IDCEC. We are always expanding our services, so check our catalog frequently to see additional credits that have been added to our Course Library.
Many of our courses are accepted by state and local professional memberships, so be sure to print your certificate of completion and self-report to your local and state boards for their consideration.
Does A+DM report to my state licensing board?
A+DM does not submit courses to specific state licensing boards for approval, however, many state boards and professional memberships will accept continuing education hours that members self-report from A+DM if they meet specific criteria. It is the learner’s responsibility to verify with their own state boards and memberships as to whether or not a specific A+DM course will qualify for continuing education credit.
All learners can print a certificate of completion once they have successfully completed each module. This certificate of completion will be available to you any time via A+DM under My Dashboard.
Most A+DM courses are certified with AIA. If a course is approved for additional CEU through other professional memberships, they will be clearly identified in the Course Description section of the course library. Learners are responsible for verifying acceptance of CEUs from A+DM with their specific state and local professional organizations.
