CONTINUING EDUCATION UNITS (CEU’S) AND COLLEGE CREDIT

UWA Continuing Education courses are non-credit.  Academic credit will not be issued for completing a Continuing Education Course.  In designated workshops or seminars, certain cases, CEUs (Continuing Education Units) will be awarded for satisfactory completion of some courses. Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are the nationally recognized method for recording non-credit Continuing Education participation and will be available for many of the UWA Continuing Education Courses. One CEU is granted for each ten contact hours of class participation.  An individual must attend at least ninety percent of the course and display an understating of the course content, in order for a participant to qualify for the CEU. CEU’S are also given based on approved contact hours for participation in approved seminars and workshops. The UWA Division of Continuing Education will maintain official transcripts of CEU’s according to name and social security number.  A written request may be made accompanied by a $5.00 fee for the CEU to be sent to the participant or a school or organization.
