Participants seeking credit for appropriate sessions were required to sign in and sign out on attendance sheets located at tables in the session rooms. Participants MUST have signed out to receive CLE credit.

SIFMA has been certified by the New York State Continuing Legal Education Board as an Accredited Provider of continuing legal education in the state of New York. Parts of this program have been approved for CLE credits. Fee reduction may be available for qualified registrants.

CPE Credit for CPAs

The ASF offered Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credit for CPAs at ASF 2010. Attendees could have earn 1 credit per session attended, with the exception of the keynote addresses on Monday (for which no credit was available). Since many of the sessions were concurrent, no participant was able to receive more than 21 credits for participation in this program.

To receive credit, you must have signed in for EACH session, providing your name, firm and the time of your arrival. You can only receive credit for the sessions where you have completed the attendance sheet. Attendance sheets were located in the session rooms.

We also requested that each individual complete an evaluation form after each session. These were located next to the sign in sheets.

This program was a group-live event. The ASF 2010 agenda was designed to offer current information, expert perspectives and authoritative insights on the most compelling topics confronting today's securitization market and its participants. Designed "by and for" industry professionals, the ASF 2010 agenda spanned all securitization asset classes and product types. Sessions provided updates on current market developments and an overview of various sectors of the market.

There were no prerequisites for this event and no advanced preparation was required.

The ASF is not able to accept completed forms after the conference has ended.  Participants only needed to complete and return the form once to obtain credit.
