Thank you for your interest in providing a training at the Association’s Annual Conference or an accredited regional training in your area. For accreditation to be provided by our Association the below form must be completed in its entirety and submitted to the Standards and Certification Committee for review/approval. The committee does require a minimum of thirty-days (30) advance notice for all applications. Once approved, an email will be sent to the facilitator noted on the original application. Please note, the application submitted must be complete with a biography of your proposed speaker(s) as well as a detailed outline of their training.

Once the class is over, County Programs who had members attend must upload course verification documents (class roster or attendance certification as well as a new Group Activity cover sheet) into Member365 via the new Chapter Management Group Activity submission process. To learn more about this process, please log in to your account on Member365 and go to the Member Resources tab from the main menu.

Please Note: The Association now requires that all verification documents and credit fees be received within 90 days from the date of a class being taken to receive credit. Any verification documents/payments received after 90 days will not be considered valid. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to info@capapgpc.org. Thank you.

The system invoice generated by Member365 must be included with payment and mailed to:
