WANT/NEED CONTINUING EDUCATION UNITS?


 

PTC currently has approval to provide Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for the following PTC programs:

If we make special advanced application, we can also get approval for Cooperative Extension professionals, Psychologists, Nurses and Chemical Dependency Counselors. If schools sponsor a program, we can offer teacher CEUs.

 

These CEUs are often accepted for "post-program approval" by other state credentialing boards. Check to see what your state requires for acceptance.
