Do I need to update my profile?

All registrants are asked to complete a profile and must be logged in to their account when registering. It is important to keep your profile updated. Your personal information is kept strictly confidential, but accurate, anonymized general information is helpful for us and our speakers in a variety of ways. We take this record keeping on your behalf very seriously.

A general understanding of the makeup of the audience allows program content to be better tailored to the unique needs of the participants. Simply put, speakers like to know who they’re presenting to. Our department also undertakes research into the effectiveness of our CPD programs, and anonymous demographic data is essential for this work.

Finally, your profile is part of your learner record, linked to the receipts and certificates, which are provided as proof of attendance for credit. Correspondence from our office will only be sent to your current primary email address that is listed in your account profile. It is important to keep your email address current.

You can update your profile under My Account –> Account Profile in the menus at the top right when you are logged in.
