Why is Fraud CPE important?

Fraud CPE helps CPAs, auditors, and finance professionals stay current as fraud schemes, anti-fraud standards, and regulatory expectations continue to evolve. Ongoing education supports professional competence in areas such as fraud detection, fraud prevention, internal control evaluation, occupational fraud, and forensic accounting.

Fraud-related continuing professional education is recognized as a critical area of practice for CPAs in audit, assurance, and advisory roles. Completing relevant Fraud CPE supports the professional standards expected by regulators, employers, and clients.

‍Certified Fraud Examiners (CFEs): The Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) requires 20 CPE hours annually to maintain the CFE credential. All credit must be relevant to fraud prevention and detection or aligned with CFE competencies.

What topics are typically covered in Fraud CPE courses?

Fraud CPE courses commonly cover topics such as:

Types of fraud and common fraud schemes
Occupational fraud and abuse
Fraud risk assessment and internal controls
Red flags and fraud detection techniques
Forensic accounting and investigation procedures
Anti-fraud programs and compliance frameworks
Case studies from real-world fraud events

What is the difference between Fraud CPE and Ethics CPE?

Fraud CPE focuses on the technical dimensions of fraud risk-detection, prevention, investigation, and forensic accounting. Ethics CPE addresses the professional conduct, integrity, and decision-making standards expected of CPAs. While the two subjects often overlap-particularly in case-study-based courses covering real-world fraud events-they are classified under various fields of study under NASBA's framework and may satisfy different CPE requirements depending on state board rules.

Can Fraud CPE count toward CFE continuing education requirements?

Yes, in most cases. The ACFE requires CFEs to complete 20 hours of CPE annually, with a focus on fraud prevention and detection or relevant professional development. LumiQ's fraud courses draw directly from real fraud cases and cover core subject matter including fraud schemes, internal controls, and forensic accounting, making them well-suited to fulfill CFE CPE requirements. CFEs are responsible for confirming that specific courses meet the ACFE's requirements.

Do LumiQ fraud CPE courses include real-world case studies?

Yes. LumiQ's fraud CPE courses are built around real-world fraud cases, including high-profile events such as the Fyre Festival fraud, the Theranos scandal, the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, and more. These case studies are analyzed through an accounting and audit lens, covering the fraud schemes involved, the red flags that were missed, and the internal control failures that allowed the fraud to occur.

Why are podcasts becoming a more popular choice than webinars for Fraud CPE?

Podcasts can deliver superior learning outcomes compared to live webinars and recorded webcasts. Audio-only formats reduce cognitive overload and ""Zoom fatigue,"" allowing your brain to retain information better. Additionally, unlike live or in-person options, you can pause and replay complex fraud and forensic concepts as needed for comprehension.

Podcasts also fit your schedule and your life better. Unlike live webinars with fixed start times, podcasts let you earn CPE during your commute, between clients, or whenever works best.

In short, you get the same credit hours with better retention and zero scheduling conflicts.

How many CPE credits can I earn from a Fraud CPE course?

CPE credits vary by course. Many podcast courses offer 1 to 2 credits per episode, while multi-episode learning paths may offer more. Each course listing clearly shows the credit hours available upon completion. Credits are earned after completing the course and passing the final assessment.

Are LumiQ's Fraud CPE courses approved for CPE requirements in my state?

LumiQ is registered with the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) in the U.S. as a CPE sponsor (Sponsor ID: 146039). Courses completed through NASBA-registered sponsors are generally accepted by U.S. boards of accountancy, subject to each state board’s specific CPE requirements.

LumiQ’s QAS self-study AI courses are typically classified under NASBA’s Information Technology field of study and provide CPE credit hours upon completion. Your certificate of completion documents the course, field of study, and credit hours earned.

Because CPE requirements and acceptance ultimately vary by state and by licensee circumstances, CPAs are responsible for confirming that a specific course meets their state board’s renewal requirements.

LumiQ courses may also support continuing education requirements for other finance and accounting credentials, depending on the rules of the applicable organization.

Does LumiQ help me track CPE credits?

Yes. With a LumiQ account you have access to the CPE Tracker. LumiQ Tracker automatically tracks the CPE you earn with LumiQ. Accounting professionals can download their certificates of completion at any time.

Can I do CPE on mobile devices?

Yes, we’ve got an app for both Apple and Android devices. Click here to go to the Google Play Store and click here to go to the Apple App Store.
