The steps to log into your account.

Step 1 - Use this link to access the platform - https://MyCEapp.com
Step 2 - Click on the green "Join Now" button.

Step 3 - Click on the "Sign In" button in the upper right corner.

This is because AIBD sets up your account for connecting your CPBD data and any prior education with your personal account.

The Username and Password may be changed after you've logged in the first time.

Long-time CPBDs already have an educational history. Everyone's accounts were migrated from the old Netforum platform to this new CE App in July 2022. You can still access the old data via AIBD.org/HUB. But all your CEs can be found on the CE App after that date.

Your Certification Director can be reached by emailing Certification@AIBD.org or by calling (800) 366-2423 (extension 2).

Congratulations! You're logged in!

You should arrive at your personal landing page. On the left side, you'll see your CPBD credentials, including your CPBD number and your current cycle's expiration date.

At the bottom is a button to add any additional credentials you have and want to track manually on your own.

On the right side is a place to add your specialties and other association affiliations. Remember, this list of specialties does not link to the "Specialties" listed in the AIBD's online membership roster.

The purpose of this specialties list is to one day be able to filter and alert CPBDs when educational events coming up that may align with their personal interests.

In the top center is a button labeled View "CE Progress." There's another one labeled "Track CE." They both go to the same place on this page.

The steps to upload a new CE certificate

Step 1 - Have your verification document (e.g., certificate, follow-up email, etc.) ready in an image or PDF file format.  

Step 2 - Click the "CE Progress" or the "Track CE button."

Step 3 - Click the "+ Record New CE button."

Step 4 - Enter the name of the course.

Step 5 - Enter the number of credit hours.

Step 6 - Enter the date of the event. It is important that you not enter the date you are uploading the credit but instead the date you received the education. To recertify, you must get a certain number and type of CEs during each cycle. CEs can be applied to prior cycles to make up for a shortfall but can not be carried forward to a new cycle.

Step 7 - Choose the mandatory topic the education you received aligns with.
It is not critical that you choose correctly; this step may be skipped.
The certification blueprint can be found beginning on page 39 of the Certification Handbook (https://AIBD.org/chb). There are four Knowledge Areas (KAs) listed.

1. Business Administration
2. Business Practices
3. Design Process
4. Building Design (which also includes building sciences)

1. Primary - Any classroom, webinar, or formal educational setting provides information or knowledge that aligns with one of the KAs listed in the Certification Handbook.
2. Elective - 
   1. Any architectural tour.
   2. Volunteer service on a planning board.
   3. Writing an article or blog post.
   4. Presenting a workshop or teaching a class/webinar.
   5. Design competition or awards program entries.
   6. Charitable projects.
   7. Passing a certificate, certification, or licensure exam other than the CPBD Exam (e.g. CAPS, ARE, LEED, etc.)
