  • The CPE Discount Store offers a great selection of online CPE courses.   I was able to complete my course on my time frame which is a great way to take CPE.  Having the book as a reference for future work was also helpful.

Texas: Professional Ethics, the Standards of Behavior for Texas
0 STARS
This has to be one of the most poorly written courses I have ever taken. There were typos, conflicting answers in the review questions, poorly-worded statements and questions. I\'ve taken many better ethics courses over the years. This course was a disappointment!

Great refresher course. Not wordy. Does a great job bringing me up to date as the computer programs do most of the work nowadays.
Defensive Divorce 2020 - 24 CPE
2 STARS
The last half or so of the course had nothing to do with divorce. The test was strange with question 107 seeming to have the man marry his daughter!
