The online form requests cell phones, we do NOT use/sell these numbers or even export them out of the system. Attendees logging into the virtual component to access the on-demand recordings will be sent a code for 2 factor authentication and texting is faster and less troublesome than email (especially with SPAM). So encourage your folks to add that information.

County & Organizations

Please have a group coordinator reach out to registration@ccdseminar.com and obtain a group discount code. Attendees can register on their own, use the code to receive the discount, and receive their own confirmation email. Your group code will be unique to your group, so please ask them to not share it outside your county or organization, other counties will receive their own code. Also, county email servers are very strict, so we strongly encourage everyone to use a personal email address so the system reminders, alerts, and most importantly, the MCLE information, is not lost to the firewall and spam blockers.
