CEU ProgramCEU Program
IEEE is an Authorized Provider of CEUs through the International Association of Continuing Education and Training (IACET), and has adopted IACET guidelines and criteria for all its continuing professional development programs
Continuing Education Units (CEUs)Purpose
Measure quality of non-credit continuing education
Assure value through application review by IEEE EAB
Meet licensing board and employer CE requirements
Value of CEUs
Increase attendance due to added quality and perceived value
Help engineers maintain their Professional Engineer (PE) license
Generate revenue for Sections, Societies, Chapters, or Regions
Document continuing education requirements of industry
CEUs and PDHsWhat do they measure?
CEU - One CEU equals ten contact hours of instruction in a continuing education activity
PDH (Professional Development Hour) - One contact hour of instruction or presentation
IEEE CEU Program Background
First offered in 1995
More than 980 courses have offered CEUs
More than 15,000 participants have received CEUs
Over 30 Sections and Societies currently participate in the IEEE CEU Program
To Offer IEEE CEUs
Complete application and submit with back–up course materials
Comply with IACET guidelines
Provide names and contact information of participants for IEEE EAB records
