CPE Credit for Passing Other Certifications

[robinsgn]

When claiming CPEs for study performed to pass another certification (CRISC, CISM, etc.), can I claim 30 or 40 CPE credits?  A number of people, including Admins on this board, have stated 40 CPE credits but (ISC)2's own FAQ states, "you may submit up to 30 CPE credits under the self-study category for the time you spent preparing to obtain the new certification."

Thanks,

@AndreaMoore this looks likes a typo in the FAQ.

@gidyn Thanks for letting me know. 

@robinsgn When in doubt, please refer to the CPE handbook: https://www.isc2.org/-/media/ISC2/Certifications/CPE/MEM-CPE_Handbook-DIGITAL.ashx
