Hi Ben -- You should contact the CAE staff in DC -- they're great people and would be happy to help you ;-). Seriously, one thing I would encourage all renewing CAEs to do is to review the current CAE exam content outline (available at www.whatiscae.com). It was updated for the exam beginning in 2005, and has new topics from the outline that was in effect when those renewing this year passed the exam. Regardless whether you need additional hours to meet the renewal requirements, it's probably good to get familiar with the concepts in case a newer CAE strikes up a conversation with you in the CAE lounge in Chicago.
