Sir, I do not have the reg in front of my, but as of my latest correspondence with HRC, it is still a 3/1 CME to retirement point transfer. My correspondence was as of approx 2 months ago. Though I was also informed that as of 2016, the points calculation was no longer granted for distance education or online CME activity, only residential courses.

Sir I presume that you are a Reservist. If so, you can contact your RPAC that is servicing your unit

MAJ Private RallyPoint Member - by Table 2-1 from AR AR 140–185 Training and Retirement Point Credits and Unit Level Strength Accounting Records (page 10 of 15 MAY 1987 edition - http://www.apd.army.mil/pdffiles/r140_185.pdf), it appears that CMEs should fall under the "2 hour rule". I've only received points under the "three hour rule" in the past (3 hours of CME for 1 retirement point). Let me know how it goes for you...
