Why do some visitors scan in at the start of the event and then leave?

• A. To have their registration documented and to meet their CPD targets
• B. To receive freebies
• C. To avoid lines at entry
• D. To see the venue before paying

Answer: (A)

Attendance verification for CPD credits is what this item tests. Scanning in at the start creates an official record that the person attended the event. Many professional bodies require documented attendance to award CPD credits or to meet licensing or employer requirements. Even if the attendee leaves after scanning, the record can be used to credit their participation, depending on the event’s rules. This explains why people scan in early: to secure a documented registration and CPD credit rather than for freebies, to dodge lines, or to see the venue before paying.
