Software companies don’t offer live webinars as frequently as public accounting firms, but they’re still a reliable source of free CPE credits. They’ll often promote their own services during webinars (there’s a reason they’re free), but most of the time, they aim to provide insightful information for finance and accounting teams.

Here are three software companies that offer free live CPE webinars.
