180+ SXSW EDU 2023 Sessions Accredited by ATPE for Continuing Professional Education Credits

SXSW EDU is a powerful learning opportunity and a great chance to elevate your practice. We have partnered with the Association of Texas Professional Educators (ATPE) to provide conference attendees with the opportunity to earn continuing professional education (CPE) credits.

This year, more than 180 sessions are accredited for CPE credits. Qualified programming will be identified both on the schedule and in the mobile app. After attending CPE-eligible sessions, attendees can receive a code that they can use to log into the ATPE Professional Learning Portal at atpe.org and receive their credit. You do not need to be an ATPE member to take advantage of this opportunity. Non-members can sign in as a guest to claim their credit.
