- Notes
- Rule 20-11-.03(5)(a): National Registry members are qualifying sponsors. Board does not pre-approve providers or courses. AMBIGUITY: the GSBA CPE page calls the Georgia-specific credit 'a Board approved program' and says the Board would circulate a list of qualifying courses, while the rule text only requires content specific to Board laws, rules and policies. Plan the GA module to carry at least 1.0 credit of GSBA law/rules/policy content and confirm with the Board whether listing is required.
