Continuing Professional Education

The Minnesota Department of Revenue is registered with the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) as a sponsor of continuing professional education on the National Registry of CPE Sponsors.

State boards of accountancy have final authority on the acceptance of individual courses for CPE credit.

We offer several sales and use tax classes at various locations in Minnesota. We also offer joint classes with some of our neighboring states.

• We offer basic and overview-level courses in the Taxes – Technical NASBA field of study.
• Our courses do not require preparation or prerequisites.
• In-person classes use the group-live instructional method and a PowerPoint presentation.
• Each class has room for 20 to 50 participants. We may cancel a class if there are not enough participants. If we cancel, you'll receive an email five days before the class.
• If you request CPE credit for a course, complete a Certificate of Attendance Request Form and return it to the instructor at the end of class.
