In Hot Soup. Need 120 CPEs by December!!
Don't know but somehow I got super busy and distracted between January 2020 and now. Actually quite a bit of it is due to the COVID-19 occurrence which derailed normal trend line of activities. Nonetheless, it just so happens that I need to amass 120 CPEs to keep a major certification alive. Major whopper

For example, while preparing for the AZ-900 I went through the recommended Microsoft material which took about 10 hours so I logged it as you can see in the attached image and it was accepted by ISC2. With providers that do not require a printout (ISACA, ISC2) I just calculate the hours I have spent on self-study for an exam and submit the CPEs which always get accepted in my case. But even if they weren't it wouldn't be a problem for me since I get so many CPEs from continuous training. In the case of EC-Council I do not record the amount of time I spent studying because they have a set criteria for passing certifications so I just upload the certificate to claim CPEs.

For proof, I screenshot a before image of the webcast, and then a during image to submit as proof. For before, I tend to use a confirmation email that includes the date somewhere in the shot.A+, Network+, CCNA, LFCS,
