FOR ATTENDANCE DOCUMENTATION: Be sure to add your email from your AFCEA membership to your event registration.

AFCEA’s Continuing Education (CE) program is designed to support certifications related to U.S. Federal Government requirements. Several WEST 2024 sessions will be reviewed by CompTIA, GIAC and CertNexus to determine if the sessions meet continuing education requirements for certification maintenance. Sessions may also support (ISC)2, National Contract Management Association (NCMA), Project Management Institute (PMI), GAGAS, and Defense Acquisition Workforce continuing education and/or certification maintenance requirements.

Formal attendance documentation is a benefit of AFCEA membership, and a service provided to attendees who purchased a continuing education (CE) pass for the event. Participation in an event session qualifying for CompTIA CEUs, GIAC CPEs and/or CertNexus CECs is required. On exiting the session, get your event badge scanned so that we can send your attendance documentation by email.
