Filing out my CPE submission for 2025 got me thinking of changing up some of my annual CPE. What are people doing these days to get sufficient formal and informal hours?

I’ve used the provincial institute courses

Video Tax News seminars and videos

Xero/Taxcycle seminar day

Taxcycle videos

Does anyone have experience and/or opinions on:

Knowledge Bureau

CPD Loop

Learnsignal

CPDFormula

I seem to get a ton of emails from the above, tempted to check out but would hate to waste money.

Thanks

I’ve been using CPDFormula for the past few years - lots of choices, all verifiable and some of them exactly the same as those offered via CPA…lower cost/hr. Also eligible for the CTC.

Depending on where you are, there are provincial program to subsidized training cost, why not find something that’s useful and pay for it, you may only be paying 20, 30% at the end and learn something, but it does take lots of time.

LumiQ’s podcast have been my main source for the last many years  
[LumiQ Learn](https://app.lumiqlearn.com/discover)

For more tax-technical PD, Video Tax News and Cadesky are good.
