What is the difference between a Continuing Education Contact Hour and Continuing Education Unit?
As defined by the International Council for Continuing Education (IACET), one continuing education unit (CEU) equals 10 contact hours of participation in an organized continuing education experience. Because there is some variation on the use of the term CEU, licensed social workers are encouraged to check with their regulatory boards to verify whether this formula is being used for licensure renewal.
