Information Update

Do I need CEUs?

Certification regulations require the completion of 9.0 (90 contact hours) Continuing Education Units CEUs) every five-year period that a professional educator certificate holder is employed (full-time or part-time) in a Connecticut public school serving under a professional educator certificate. If you are not serving under a professional educator certificate in a Connecticut public school, then you are not required to complete, in order to apply for continuation of a professional educator certificate.

Do I need CEUs in reading and/or technology?

For your information, specific CEU requirements, as part of the 9.0 CEUs, are driven by the endorsement that a professional educator certificate holder is serving under at the time of application (ED 179) for a continuation of a professional educator certificate. For your convenience, you may wish to view our Chart – CEU Requirements that is available on our website at: http://www.sde.ct.gov/sde/cwp/view.asp?a=2613&q=321394 If an endorsement code does not appear on the Chart, then you may complete any 9.0 CEUs.
