In addition, attendees would be able to attend the Xplor exhibit space as well as participate in the Xplor networking events..
The material and examination have been certified by Xplor International for 5 Continuing Education Units and the EDP Commission will recognize 50 Education Credits toward Electronic Document Associate (EDA) and Electronic Document Professional (EDP) industry certification.
“We are delighted to have the acadami course as part of our curriculum. It is absolutely a must attend for anyone who wants to get a sound foundation of knowledge of our industry” said Skip Henk, EDP, President and CEO of Xplor International.
“We at acadami are delighted to be able to bring our Transaction Document School to the Xplor annual event this year,” says William J. ‘Bill’ McCalpin m-edp and acadami’s Registrar. “The School synchronizes very well with Xplor’s professional certification program, and any School attendee who meets the requirements and passes the three exams during our School is immediately eligible for the Electronic Document Associate (EDA) designation. There are nearly 50 EDAs certified by Xplor today, and nearly all of them received the designation as the result of attending acadami courses.”
