  3. For most enduring (online) activities, you cannot modify the credit to be claimed, as shown below.

  4. For live and on-demand activities (e.g. Convergence), you may claim partial credit by entering the amount of credit you wish to claim in the Enter Credit field. Credit must be entered in 0.25 increments and should be commensurate with your actual participation in the activity.
    Note: For Convergence only, you can change the number of credits you have claimed for a meeting, up until the expiration date. When updating credit, enter the total amount of credit you wish to claim for the activity. You cannot enter less credit than previously claimed.
