**Note on Paper forms: While you can opt to use paper forms to gather the necessary information, you will need to convert this to a digital format and transfer the information to the correct online form. This will expedite the processing of the credits. Do not submit scanned, handwritten forms as you will be asked to re-submit digitally and this will delay the processing of your credits.**

Workshop instructors / coordinators who repeatedly do not follow these guidelines may be asked to seek a different CMP sponsor.
