Continuing Education Units (CEUS)

Activities for which CEUs are to be recorded must be approved in advance and must not be publicized as qualifying for CEUs until institutional approval has been granted. The CEU records the extent of an individual's participation in non-credit continuing education activities, and should not be confused with performance in an academic course for degree credit.
