Continuing Education Units or CEU's are a professional's dedication to further study and enhancement of knowledge in the field of recreation. Courses can be range from training provided by your town, to first aid courses, to the quality quarterly education classes offered through CRPA at its state conference, and through out the year. CEU's are attained to support professional certification. Courses that are sponsored by CRPA are approved through the certification board for CEU's. The cost for obtaining the CEU's is built into the cost of attending the CEU class. If you attend another non CRPA event and would like to see if it qualifies for CEU's you can submit the following form (petition for CEU Form) . A fee of $10 is required for the Professional Development Board to review your case. You will then be charged $2 for every .1 CEU's approved. Have you served on many boards and committees? Have you written an article for CRPA? Have you written a book? There are many professional service experiences that will grant you the opportunity to gain CEU's. Fill out the Professional Service Experience Form and submit a $10 review fee to obtain your CEU's. CEU's from this category can not make up more than 0.5 CEU's toward your 2.0 CEU's for recertification for the Park and Recreation Professional Certification. Professional Service/Experience Form Would you like to run a session that would have CEU's attached to it? Organizations/Towns and other groups wishing to partner with CRPA to have a CEU class can do so by filling out the CEU Endorsement form. The guidelines for a CEU class are attached. The professional development board requires at least 6 weeks prior notice to review an endorsement request. For further questions, call (860) 721-0384 or e-mail info@crpa.com
