How do you renew with CSIA® CEUs?
You know we’re big advocates of continuous learning. But CEUs pay off even more when you get them through CSIA® CEU approved courses and trainings. To renew your CSIA® CCS® credential with CEUs, simply accumulate the following number of CEUs in the following categories over the three-year credential period:
*Business CEUs may not be used to meet minimum category requirements in Technical, Codes & Standards, Communication & Liability, or Health & Safety. Business falls under the ‘Elective’ category. For more tips around CEUs, check out our CEU Tips. |
Do you have to submit your CEUs?
As long as you’re getting your CEUs through CSIA-approved courses, we will have CEU information associated with your ID number in our records. If, however, you’re earning CEUs through a course that is NOT CSIA -approved for CEUs, you’ll need to submit those CEUs to us at office@csia.org. We always recommend that you maintain your own records as well in case there’s ever a discrepancy we need to clear up for renewal. Want to know how many CEUs you currently have? No problem. Just use our Pro Login to check at any time. What happens if you forget to renew your credential? We know life gets busy, so we always remind our credential holders when it’s time to renew. We also offer a 30-day renewal grace period, although CEUs cannot be earned and applied after expiration. |
