- How to complete the
CEU application form.
- Fill in the contact name and address,
phone number, fax number, email, sponsoring organization and title of
the program/activity.
- Check the box indicating whether the
program is open to the public to attend, and if so, type in the
fee. In some cases, industry will request CEU's for their
in-house training where the public is not invited.
- Write dates/location of the meeting.
- In the 'CEU's Requested' section,
please indicate the total number of CEU's for each Continuing
Education Unit (CEU) area by totaling the CEU's you have listed on
page 2. CEU's are awarded on the basis that one hour of
classroom is equal to one CEU. CEU's are awarded in increments
of 0.5 using the following formula:
|
Class
Time
|
No. of CEU's
|
|
30-45 minutes
|
= 0.5
|
|
46-75
minutes
|
= 1.0
|
|
76-105 minutes
|
= 1.5
|
|
106-135
minutes
|
= 2.0
|
|
136-165 minutes
|
= 2.5 |
|
166-195
minutes
|
= 3.0 |
|
196-225 minutes
|
= 3.5 |
|
226-255
minutes
|
= 4.0 |
- Complete the second page of the
application by indicating the date, start and end time of each
session, the CEU area(s) to which the session topic relates, the
amount of CEU's requested per CEU area, the session topic, a brief
description of the session topic and the speaker's name and brief
background information for each speaker.
You need to designate the coding for the CEU area column in order to
identify the specific training area. The coding is obtained from
the CCA Continuing Education Standards document. There are 5 CEU
categories: PM (Pest Management), SW (Soil & Water
Management), NM (Nutrient Management), CM (Crop Management) and PD
(Professional Development).
- If the speaker is well known in the
area, their job title and employer is sufficient background
information. Otherwise, a 1-page resume or bio is suggested.
- Include a copy of the meeting agenda
and/or any supporting information regarding the meeting.
- You will receive confirmation of CEU's
that your program has been approved for. You will receive CEU
sign-up sheets that meeting participants will sign and write their
accreditation number. The sheet is then returned to Mary Jo
Rowbottom (608) 273-2081 at the American Society of Agronomy, and CCA's
will receive their credits. If a sign-up sheet is not received
prior to the event, collect names using the generic
sign-up sheet.
 Please note that Adobe Acrobat Reader is required to retrieve the
generic sign-up sheet.
