User Accounts
Can I change the email address on my account?
You will be able to change your email address by signing into your AEC Daily account, and navigating to your User Profile > The Basics tab. You will not have to change your password.
How do I make my account inactive?
We'll be sorry to see you go, but if you feel you need to make your account inactive, you can contact us directly at 877-566-1199 or via email at info@aecdaily.com and we can help you out. NOTE: Your account is dormant when not in use. Not using the account is effectively the same as deactivating it.
Why can’t I sign in to my account?
Please try signing in using the email that you used to create the account, or the email address that you signed up for a webinar or live event using. You may need to reset your password - you can click the password reset link and follow the steps.
How do I reset my password?
Click the password reset link and then enter the email you used to create the account. We'll send mail to that address if we recognize it.
Can YOU reset my password?
AEC Daily employees can start the password reset process for you, but are unable to update or access user account passwords. Please call us at 877-566-1199 or email info@aecdaily.com if you are having difficulty resetting your password.
I can't find the password reset email you are sending. Where could it be?
Try the following: check your spam or junk mail folders, use your email application's search feature to look for mail from info@aecdaily.com. It's also possible that we did not recognize the email address you submitted when trying to reset your password. In those cases, we do not send any mail. If you are continuing to have problems accessing your account, call us toll free at 1-877-566-1199. We're happy to help.
Credits and Credit Reporting
What is an 'LU'? A 'CEU'? A 'PDH'?
LU = 'Learning Unit', CEU = 'Continuing Education Unit', PDH = 'Professional Development Hour', to name a few! These are all acronyms for units of continuing education. AEC Daily typically relies on the unit 'hour', but you might see other units of education in course details pages and other places with in depth information about a course or session.
When will my credit show on my AIA transcript?
AEC Daily reports credits to the AIA every 10 business days. If you have taken the same course previously, the AIA will not recognize the new credit. If you have waited longer than 10 business days and have not taken the course previously, please email us at: info@aecdaily.com. Include your name, email address, and details about the course you are requesting follow-up on.
How and when can I receive a certificate of completion for my recently completed education?
Your course or session completion will be confirmed via email. This email will contain a link to your certificate of completion. For on-demand (online) courses, you can immediately access your certificate of completion in your transcript after achieving a passing score in the post-course quiz. For webinars and face-to-face events, certificates of completion are usually available within 2-4 business days following the end of the session.
Can I retake courses?
Yes, you may retake a course anytime. However, many associations restrict how frequently a course may be retaken for credit. AEC Daily will only report a course for credit on your behalf once in a three-year period. We report credits to the AIA, LA CES, IDCEC, USGBC, and LA (Florida). Please verify the rules about retaking courses with your associations and licensing boards.
Courses and Quizzes
How do I figure out which courses are registered with a specific association?
There are a couple of simple ways: First option is to view the course details for the course in question and then click 'Show Current Course Approvals' link. All associations that the course is registered with will be displayed. The second method is to visit the AEC Daily 'Certification' tab, and select any association from the list. All courses displayed in the ensuing page are registered with that association.
I can't find the courses I took! Where are they?
All completed on-demand and webinar/face-to-face education can be found in your transcript. Even if a course has become 'inactive' since you completed, the record will be retained in your transcript. If you feel your transcript is no longer showing previously completed courses, it is likely that your completed courses are under a different user account. Try signing in using other email addresses you may have previously provided. Call us at 877-566-1199 or email info@aecdaily.com and let us help!
How do I take a quiz?
Each course in AEC Daily is associated with a post-course quiz. Upon achieving a passing score on this quiz, the course will be marked as completed. Every AEC Daily on demand course provides a quiz link at the end of the course materials. The quiz is password protected - YOU'LL FIND THE QUIZ PASSWORD CLEARLY MARKED WITHIN THE COURSE MATERIALS.
Webinars and Face-to-Face Learning
Where can I find the link to my upcoming webinar?
Some of our webinars are integrated with 3rd party services such GoToWebinar, Zoom, etc. In these cases, you should expect to receive a join link directly from these services (usually) 24 hours prior to the start time. For other types of webinars, the join link should appear in your Registration Confirmation email. You can also resend this email to yourself by visiting your Transcript and clicking the 'Resend Email' button beside any upcoming session you are registered for.
Do you have a recording of the webinar I attended?
We often have recordings of previously conducted live presentations in our on-demand library. Try searching for the name of the session you are looking for into the search field at the top of the page.
I missed/wasn't able to attend the webinar, what can I do?
We often have recordings of previously conducted live presentations in our on-demand library. Try searching for the name of the session you are looking for into the search field at the top of the page. You can also browse our library of sessions and see if there is another scheduled webinar. You may also directly reach out to the provider of the webinar by searching for them in AEC Daily, visiting their showcase page and sending them a 'Request a Session' message. If all else fails, call us at 877-566-1199 or email us at livelearning@aecdaily.com and we'll help you out.
