      This is almost the same as free.
      Price of $27.95 for 15 hours, although some say you can get it for $15.00 if you ask (I didn't bother to ask).
      All from the comfort of your computer and at your leisure.
      I guess they have ways to get lesser hours - I figured you could sort that out on your own.

      You can become a tax preparer with our affordable, superior, high quality IRS and CTEC approved AFSP online tax preparer courses

        I got this offer in my email.

          Plan B

          You could always generate one hour credit by serving as a group instructor, discussion leader, or speaker.

          IIRC, you actually can find a couple hours of "preparation time" for each hour of "presentation time."

          The only restriction I am aware of is NMT six hours annually for an EA and NMT four hours annually for an RTRP.

          If that doesn't work for you, snag a simple online course. Grab a cup of coffee and proceed.

            You can go to irs.gov and do the EITC training module and get 1 hour free.

                There's also this: http://www.bestcpe.com/pilot_testing/free_cpe.htm

                It is the same charitable contributions cpe that ruthc linked, only from a different vendor.

                I wonder if you count the same cpe if purchased from different vendors?
