Yes! Signing up for sessions in advance is always a good idea to make the most of your on-site experience. And an even better idea? Get to those sessions on time to make sure you breeze through our session scanners and get a seat.

In late September, Schedule Builder will open in the IMPACT event hub. Schedule Builder is where you sign up for the sessions that interest you. Look for an email from us, informing you that Schedule Builder is open.

When Schedule Builder launches in September, you’ll be able to sign up for sessions by logging in through the IMPACT event hub.

Check back for details on how to sign up for sessions.

Check back occasionally. Attendees update their schedules often, and a spot may open up.

Pro-tip: Schedules can change once the conference is underway, so often there is room for more attendees on the day of the session. Be sure to arrive five to 10 minutes before the start time, as a standby queue will be admitted at the beginning of the session if room is available.

Lots! IMPACT’s goal is to provide the most relevant content during the conference, so our sessions are always numerous and diverse. We will be adding sessions throughout the summer, so check back often!

We always try to accommodate everyone to the best of our ability, so if room is still available, come on in! If you are late to a popular session, it’s likely we’ve admitted the standby queue, so your registered spot isn’t guaranteed.

We won’t leave you hanging! Before you get to the conference, be sure to download the IMPACT mobile app so you can pull up your personal schedule with your sessions and their locations. Plus there is plenty of signage and staff on-site to direct you to where you need to go.

We don’t yet know the exact number of sessions that will offer CE credit, but you can earn between seven and 10 hours of CE credit at IMPACT 2025.

IMPACT offers CE credit for the following accreditations:

• Credit for Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP^®)
• Credit for the following Investments & Wealth Institute (IWI) designations:
  • Certified Investment Management Analyst^® (CIMA^®)
  • Certified Private Wealth Advisor^® (CPWA^®)
  • Retirement Management Advisor^® (RMA^®)
• Credit for Continuing Professional Education for CPAs (CPE)

1. Make sure you indicate during registration the type of credit you are seeking.

• CFP and IWI holders must include their board ID numbers. Registrations with incomplete or missing IDs cannot be processed.
• If you do not know your ID, contact the appropriate board:
  • CFP: 800-487-1497
  • IWI: 303-770-3377

2. Attend a session that offers credit. You can easily sort for sessions that offer credit by logging into the IMPACT event hub and searching for sessions using the Credit filter on the left. Be sure to show up on time to ensure that you meet the minimum time requirement.

3. Confirming your session participation is crucial—and easy! First, make sure you are scanned into the session. Second, stay for the duration of the session. Third, complete the survey at the end. You must complete the question attesting that you want credit and have met the minimum requirements to confirm your session participation.

4. What’s next? So long as you have met the three requirements above, you will be emailed a Continuing Education Certificate for each course that offers credit. This certificate will be sent to the email address you provided during registration. Be sure to save those credit emails!

5. How is credit reported? For the CPE designation, you will need to submit the emailed certificate (see step 4 above) to your State Board of Accountancy. For CFP and IWI designations, keep the certificate of attendance for your records. Schwab will submit your attendance to each of these boards on your behalf. Be sure to download the IMPACT mobile app for up-to-date credit information and to note your session attendance for credit requirements.

Please complete steps 2 through 5 above. When you complete these steps, you will be emailed a Continuing Education Certificate for each course that offers credit. You are welcome to self-report to your respective board.

Email us your questions, including those involving administrative policies, complaints, self-reporting, or other designations not listed here.
