I request the certificates from presenters and drop PDFs or scans of certificates in a folder on my hard drive (filename is by date). I also log them in a spreadsheet so I can filter by date and credits. Usually I play catchup on the spreadsheet once or twice a year to keep things up to date and organized.
Maybe not such a secret, but most of the time you don't need to "log" them, just certify that you've completed them when you renew your license (your jurisdiction may vary). You only need to show your work when/if you get audited. So you can probably just get away with the certificates in some form or another.
Somewhat similar, but I don't bother with the spreadsheet. I save all certificates to a google drive folder, one for each year. I amend the pdf file name to include the # of hours on the certificate. That way I can see at a glance how many hours I have.
A co-worker was audited a couple years ago. All he did was email his certificates and that was the end of it.
I had a colleague that got audited by CSI when he was renewing his certification. Similar to the post above, he sent them the certificates and everything was fine.

CEU's for non AiA members
This is my first time not being an AiA member and wondering how do I log CEU's?

Thank you for the response

I'm curious if people ever get audited by organizations other than the state licensing boards?
