If you’re attending more than one session, fill out the survey after your final session. You only need to fill out the survey once to receive a certificate for all credits earned at NEXT.
Step 3: Complete the Survey The QR code will direct you to a short post-session survey through Tikidas, our accrediting platform. Completing the survey is required to receive credit. Upon submission, a Tikidas account will automatically be created for you — giving you easy access to your certificates anytime you need them.
