Continuing education is an important part of any professional’s career and the work they do. Not only do CEUs help keep accreditations current, but they also keep you in the know about the most current practices in your field. The Leadership Summit Planning Committee always keeps CEUs in the forefront. This year, the Leadership Summit has been approved for the following CEU accreditations: Dietitians, Social Workers, and Educators. Planners and CHES/MCHES CEUs are still pending approval by the appropriate governing organizations.
Dieticians and Educators
Participants may receive RD/RDN/DTR/NDTR CEUs for up to eight hours based on the Summit sessions that are attended.
Educators can get up to eight CEU hours based on the Summit sessions that are attended.
