Continuing Education Unit (CEU)

A Continuing Education Unit (CEU) is a standardized measure used to quantify participation in professional development activities beyond initial training or education. Typically, one CEU equals ten hours of supervised learning or training related to a specific field or profession. Professionals earn CEUs by attending workshops, courses, seminars, or conferences to stay current with industry standards, enhance skills, and maintain licensure or certification. This system ensures ongoing competency and encourages lifelong learning across various professions, such as healthcare, education, and engineering.
