CEU (Continuing Education Units)

Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are standardized credits that professionals earn to maintain their licenses or certifications. They represent participation in relevant educational activities, such as courses, workshops, or seminars, aimed at enhancing skills and knowledge in a specific field. Typically, one CEU equals ten contact hours of participation. Earning CEUs demonstrates ongoing professional development and commitment to staying current with industry standards. Regulatory bodies often require a certain number of CEUs within a licensing period to ensure practitioners continue to meet competency requirements and provide quality service.
