ISACA has announced CPE policy changes effective January 1, 2027 while retaining the 120-CPE three-year total; use the policy that applies to your actual reporting period rather than mixing future rules into an earlier cycle.
Keep annual and cycle obligations separate
ISACA maintenance is not satisfied by looking only at a three-year total. Track the annual minimum, three-year CPE total, annual maintenance fee, ethics obligation, and any audit documentation as separate status checks.
Use the policy for the correct reporting period
ISACA has announced policy changes effective January 1, 2027. A future-policy rule should not be retroactively applied to an earlier reporting year; save the effective date beside the requirement you use.
When one activity supports more than one certification
Record the activity once, then document why it is relevant to each certification before applying it across credentials. Reconcile the final totals with MyISACA rather than assuming a local spreadsheet has accepted the activity.
