CEU信息

Continuing education and public service programs may be divided into three categories: professional education, 社区教育, 以及社区服务. 继续教育 Units (CEUs) are awarded for those programs which advance a participant's education. CEUs also may be awarded for programs in 社区教育, if the program meets certain standards. 项目 of a community service nature do not qualify for CEU award.

The 继续教育 Unit originated with a national task force which was formed (1968) to determine the feasibility of a uniform unit of measurement of noncredit continuing education programs. In 1971, the Southern Association of 大学 and 学校 adopted a revised Standard Nine on Special Activities (now contained in the new Criterion 4.3) which incorporated the concept of the continuing education unit. bet8体育娱乐入口's noncredit continuing education programs meet the criteria set by the Southern Association of 大学 and 学校 regarding the award of university CEUs. In accordance with these criteria the CEU is used as the basic instrument of measurement for an individual's participation in an institution's offering of noncredit classes, 课程或项目.
