GET COURSES CEU APPROVED

Do you want to obtain CEU approval for your OWN courses? Let us help!
The first step is to determine which agencies will draw a bigger audience and get your courses registered with one or more of these providers. When we are getting courses approved, we determine the highest common denominator and build to that standard. That way, the training can be approved by ALL of the agencies. The first thing you must decide is which CEUs you are trying to target. There are many to choose from— ASIS, CSI, ALOA, etc. Keep in mind that the courses can contain very little information on your specific company, product, or solution. For most of the continuing education that you develop, the 90/10 rule applies. This means that most providers require the content have 90% industry information and only 10% product or solution specific information.
