Sun, Sand, and …CPE?
Ahh… It’s spring. The weather is warmer, the grass is greener, and hurried tax preparers naturally start thinking about… CPE credits? Well, maybe not. In those precious few minutes between clients, many practitioners daydream about vacation. Maybe someplace warm, perhaps a cruise, or even someplace exotic. Well, why not do both? As the Travel Free for CPE article explains, you can have your vacation and CPE credits too. There are many, many companies that offer CPE credits. At least two companies, Western CPE and the National Tax Institute, offer a large variety of locations to earn CPE credits. Here are some exciting CPE destinations, so dream a little and find a CPE destination that educates your mind and refreshes your body.

Oh, and if you’d like to earn CPE credits while learning about a great software package, plan to attend one of Drake’s Demonstration Seminars or fall Update Schools. Chances are, you will find us at your own back door. Visit www.drakesoftware.com or see pages 7-8 for dates and locations.
