There is a non-refundable, non-transferable $50 fee (per day of the seminar) as a coordinator.

To be considered eligible for a coordinator position, you will need to fill out a coordinator affidavit form. Completing the affidavit will change your account to an “Active Coordinator” account.

Group Registration discounts are offered to those registering 14 days prior to the start of the event. This allows time to ensure that materials and meeting space are available for all attendees. The Group Registration discount is not extended to those registering the day of the event. 

Once a formal tuition quote is extended, the quoted price will not be adjusted for additional attendees. We ask that a clear attendee count is gathered prior to a tuition request to ensure accurate quoting. We reserve the right to adjust tuition rates that come in at smaller numbers than anticipated. 


Do you need access to our online courses such as live video webinars, downloadable and streaming seminars? If 5 or more staff members from your facility are attending a live seminar, take advantage of discount tuition:

Online Education

What are the differences between live webinars and digital seminars?

Live Webinars: The video webinar is a seminar with audio and video live-streamed directly to your computer. Since this is a live broadcast, you must attend it live as it occurs at the set date and time. You will be able to type questions to the speaker. The speaker will see the questions and will be able to address them. The live webinar format is a great option for those who wish they could attend the live event but cannot be away from the office or for those who simply prefer to gain their CE from the comfort of their home/office rather than travel. The live webinar format will either offer live CE credit (interactive) or self-study credit (home-study/independent), depending on the requirements of your licensing board. Please check each program for the type of CE offered. Tests are available to additional participants for an additional fee. For live webinars, the post-test must be completed within one week of viewing the programs.

Digital Seminars: Digital seminars are prerecorded trainings, and allow you to either stream the content across the internet or download directly to your computer or other digital device to watch at your convenience. You may stop, start, and rewind the program as needed. Whether you stream or download the seminar, the content will be available to you for as long as you like. Digital seminars will offer self-study credits (home-study/independent). Please note that for some professions, CE credits do have expiration dates.  This means that if your licensing board has a credit expiration date, you will need to complete the program before the credit expiration date. Please read the credit information for the program and/or check with your board to determine if a CE expiration date applies for your profession.

(For almost all live webinars and digital seminars, tests are available to additional participants for an additional fee. Additional participants will not be able to access the program through their own accounts; they will need to watch the program with the main registrant.)

What is an online course?

Online courses are web-based, go-at-your-own pace courses.  There are no set times that you must be logged into the course, and you will have access to them forever.  Your payment for the online course includes the post-test(s) for the program.  The post-test(s) may be accessed by signing into your distance-learning account on catalog.pesicanada.com, clicking the green “Launch Online Course” button, and clicking the “CE Tests” or “CE Certificate” tab.  After you successfully complete the post-test online, you will able to download or email your Certificate of Successful Completion immediately.

Can I share the program I purchased with my colleague?

In most cases, yes. Tests are available to additional participants for an additional fee for all program types except for online courses.

What is the Live Webinar registration deadline?

Participants can register up until the day of the online program for the majority of our webinars. If space is limited, it will be noted in the promotional materials.

What is the difference between a digital seminar and an online course?

Online courses contain carefully selected content that is curated for the most advanced comprehension of an educational topic. All online course purchasers have access to exclusive member forums to engage with other professionals. Additionally, online courses may include exclusive live and/or pre-recorded Q&A calls with the presenter and bonus resources such as video downloads, worksheets, PDF downloads and more. For most courses, videos from the course may be downloaded directly to your computer or mobile device to watch at your convenience. The online course format may either offer self-study credit or a combination of live credit (interactive) and self-study credits (home-study/ independent). This is considered a classroom format. Digital Seminars are recordings from a live-location seminar. These are usually one-day or two-day events. Purchasers of a digital seminar will receive the program recording and the handout, but will not receive additional videos, bonuses, books, handouts, or chat forum.

The manual and test are located in your account. You may access the materials by clicking the “Handouts” button.  You may access and complete the quiz and evaluation by clicking on the “CE Certificate” button.

Are CPD credits available for your products?

A Certificate of Successful Completion will be issued upon successful completion of the program’s post-test and evaluation. Post-tests consist of multiple-choice and true/false questions. A passing score is 80%.  Successful completion will show that you watched the activity in its entirety. You may retake the test as many times as necessary to pass at no additional charge.
