Where can I find classes/events that qualify for CEU credit?
Unity Worldwide Ministries is committed to making CEUs relevant and easy to obtain.
We appreciate everyone’s eagerness in ensuring their CEUs are up-to-date. There have been some questions about what will be available especially with regards to the Ethics and Boundaries and Inclusivity. Please be aware that we are endeavoring to make this possible – for Ethics/Boundaries, Inclusivity and the general Profession Development credits. Here are options that are available:
- Seminars at convention
- Many of our regions are working on seminars to meet these requirements at their regional conferences – please check with your regional leadership to learn more
- Online trainings through Member Services. There are ongoing opportunities to earn Professional Development credits, and we will be offering webinars on Ethics/Boundaries and Inclusivity in the fall, most likely in November. We will have dates posted on our website by mid-July, and are hoping to have a daytime and an evening time slot available for both of these.
- You could attend a class or seminar in your local community on one of these topics. Please be sure to get pre-approval.
- All SEE and Ministerial courses are available for credit.
This course is approved for Ethics/Boundaries: Sexual Misconduct and the Role of Congregations.
