  • Note: While the inclusion of Mini-course instruction in the Virtual PDI program will provide continuing professional education (CPE) or continuing education and training (CET) credits, it does not provide direct credit toward meeting DoD Financial Management Certification Program requirements, as did the on-site instruction for participants who participated fully and also completed and submitted course evaluation forms at the end of the Mini-course.
