How will I know a tax class meets the "qualifying education" requirements?

A "qualifying education" tax course meets requirements when not less than 60 hours of instruction is taught in basic personal income tax law, theory, and practice by an approved curriculum provider. Of the required 60 hours, 45 hours shall be concerned with federal tax curriculum and 15 hours shall be concerned with state tax curriculum.

All approved courses by CTEC have an assigned three part course number that includes a QE (9999-QE-9999) These numbers are available from the provider and are found on the course completion certificate that is issued from the school to students who successfully complete the course.
