Clock Hours, CEUs...Which Is It?

by Kathy Hughes
NCCAP Special Projects Trustee

NCCAP recognizes both clock hours and continuing education units (CEUs). While we do accept CEUs, we need members to remember that “point one (.1) CEU” is equivalent to one clock hour. Therefore a member would need 3 CEUs to complete their ADC renewal. Many people have used .1 CEU to mean 10 clock hours (10X) rather than one-tenth (1/10 or .1), and have had their renewals denied. It is impossible to accumulate 10 hours of continuing education in one day, unless the educational session starts at 7:00AM and continues to 6:00PM. Most all sessions include breaks and a meal. Please remember that “point one” (.1) of a CEU is equivalent to 1 hour. NN
