The Statewide Procurement Division’s (SPD) Training and Policy Development Program requests your attention to user accounts in the Statewide Procurement Education System (SPDEDU): Profile Maintenance All certified individuals are encouraged to review and update their user profile information for 2021:
To update account information, log in to the SPDEDU using Google Chrome. Select 'My Account' and then select 'Edit My Profile'. Certification Status Payments for state certification and certification renewal invoices must be received in order to process official certification documentation. Please review the 'Orders' section of 'My Account' on the SPDEDU to check the status of pending invoices. If an order status shows 'On Hold', this means payment has not yet been received and processed by the SPD Training and Policy Development team. Please select the link for the order number on hold and forward the invoice to the appropriate accounts payable department within your agency. Continuing Education Opportunities The SPD Training and Policy Development team will host a live training event:
To register for the event, log in to the SPDEDU and locate the training on either the SPDEDU homepage or under the 'Course Catalog' tab by selecting 'Continuing Education Live Events'. This training will be recorded and edited as a webinar video and posted to the SPDEDU system at a later date. In addition, several National Institute of Governmental Procurement Inc. (NIGP) courses are approved as appropriate continuing education for CTCD and CTCM renewals. More information is available under the 'Approved SPD-Sponsored Courses' tab of the SPDEDU. Continuing Education Hour (CEH) Recommendation The Training and Policy Development team recommends certification holders complete an average of 8-12 continuing education classes per year to maintain CEH requirements. While there is not an annual cap or minimum, consistent continuing education training keeps certificate holders up to date with the latest recommendations, laws and practices. Regular continuing education course completion also reduces last-minute obstacles prior to certification renewal. Students can register for and take classes, maintain their training profile and track continuing education hours for their Certified Texas Contract Developer/Certified Texas Contract Manager certificates at the SPDEDU. Please contact the Training and Policy Development Program for assistance. |
