What are CEUs and PDUs?
The Office of Continuing Studies at Villanova issues Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for the university’s online certificate programs. The formula for determining CEUs is 1/10 of a unit for every hour of study associated with a given course. For example, a 15-hour course would yield 1.5 CEUs. CEUs may be issued by regionally accredited universities and are not tied to any agency, e.g. PMI®. CEUs are often required by employers for tuition assistance purposes and appear on Villanova University’s Certificate of Achievement.
