Online reporting of Mainpro+ credits is mandatory for all members and is completed using the CFPC’s portal. In order to fulfill the Mainpro+ reporting requirements, members must submit a minimum of 250 credits in each five-year cycle. In addition, during the five-year cycle:
At least 125 credits must be certified credits.
The remaining 125 credits may be certified or non-certified.
A minimum of 25 credits must be earned and reported in each year of a member’s cycle.
Your Mainpro+ credits will appear in your Mainpro+ account “Holding Area” (top menu). Credits will appear in your account 2-4 weeks after the event.
Direct Credit Entry activities will be sent to your Holding Area in your Mainpro+ Account. To apply these credits to your portfolio, complete the Impact Assessment questionnaire. Your activity(s) will then be approved and the credits will be visible on your dashboard.

Finding a Mainpro+ certified activity is easy with the advanced activity search feature in your Mainpro+ account.
Start by clicking the “Enter CPD Activity” button located in both the top left corner of your Mainpro+ account and under the “Quick Links” tab. This will open a 3-step search that allows you to find and select the attended program and properly upload your Mainpro+ credits.
Step 1: Select the proper category, certification type, activity type and program delivery method of the program (found on your certificate of attendance).
Step 2: Search by using any combination of the four fields: event title (full or partial title), session ID (found on your certificate of attendance), city and/or activity date. For example, if you know only part of the activity title and the city, Mainpro+ will provide you with a filtered list of options.
Step 3: In the list of “Search Results”, find the program you are looking for and then click “Select.”
If you do not see the program listed, you can search again or click the button beside “Don’t see your activity?” to enter the credit details manually.
