What is a Continuing Education Unit (CEU)?
The Continuing Education Unit is a quantitative measure of successfully completed continuing education and has evolved into a hallmark of quality training and education. One (1) CEU is equal to ten (10) contact hours of continuing education.

How CEUs are Computed
The number of CEUs awarded to a student upon completion of a course is determined by the number of contact hours spent in a formal learning environment, where one (1) contact hour is equivalent to 60 minutes of instruction. For example, 1.5 CEUs are assigned for a learning experience with a total of 15 contact hours. Fractional portions are disregarded.
