How important are Continuing Education Units (CEUs)? DSA has not forced them upon you and made them a requirement for membership in the past, so does this mean that they are meaningless?CONTINUING EDUCATION.
SHAPING THE FUTURE.
The answer is NO.
As a professional who markets services to the public, you want to be in the KNOW and well-versed on the current market trends as well as consumer safety and health regulations. The societies who do regulate CEUs suggest earning 10 CEUs every two years. This is not a difficult task with the availability of distance learning and webinars. If you want to be part of what's going on and stay relevant in today's market, it's crucial to be part of this culture.There is a company that will help you register your CEUs and keep track of them. This company also provides an extensive list of CEUs available across the nation. We have provided a link to this site below.
At no cost to you, you can set up an account. So what is available after this process? Click on the event calendar tab at the top, choose distance learning and click search. Then you are on your way to discovering your personal path. If you find that you are interested in several of the topics, click and register with them so you will be included in future classes.
