PART 1: Get Your Session Words for All Attended Sessions

1. At the beginning and end of each educational conference session, you will receive a “Session Word.” You will need this word to verify your attendance during the online conference evaluation and CE claim process.
   
   
   For your convenience, NAADAC has supplied a “Word of the Session & CE Tracking Form” that can be filled out with each session’s word to help you track the sessions you’ve attended. This form will be provided to you at registration, or you can also find it in the Resources section of the conference app as well here. You can also keep track of your session words on the conference app in the notes section of each session.
   
   Please note that session tracking is solely the responsibility of the attendee and NAADAC cannot be held responsible for forgotten or lost session words. NAADAC staff members are not allowed to provide you with these words. By obtaining a CE certificate for a session, you are attesting that you attended the full duration of the training. Obtaining a CE certificate for a training you did not complete is an ethical violation that could result in loss of certification, license, and/or NAADAC membership.

Session tracking is solely your responsibility, so please be sure to record your Session Words so that you can receive your CE certificates. NAADAC staff are not able to provide you with the Session Words.
