An additional fee of $10.00 is required for all types of CEU credit. The CEU has been designed to give recognition to persons continuing their education and keeping up-to-date in their chosen field or profession. Please indicate on your registration form the type of CEU requested. CEUs awarded for attendance will be: IBC, NBCC, Social Work, CRC, and General Credit in the amount of 6 hours or .6 CEUs per day. If attending all three days you will be awarded 18 hours or 1.8 CEUs. The University of Iowa (#4062) is recognized by the National Board for Certified Counselors to offer continuing education for National Certified Counselors. We adhere to NBCC Continuing Education Guidelines. The Iowa Board of Substance Abuse Certification has approved IBC credit for selected courses which are indicated in the course descriptions. The University of Iowa is an approved provider for General CEUs for this program. On October 5, 2005 the Iowa Board of Social Work Examiners changed the rules for social work CEUs. The Board no longer approves continuing education sponsors, and now directs its licensees to review the continuing education criteria established in the rules. Social work CEUs will be offered but it is up to the participant to determine if this program is deemed appropriate for your profession. If you have questions, please contact the Iowa Board of Social Work Examiners. REGISTRATION FEES Payment is requested at the time of registration.
