CONTINUING EDUCATION UNITS (CEUs) 

 
The Conferences and Short Courses Program (CSC), under the Division of Continuing Education at Colorado State University – Pueblo, boasts an array of partnerships, collaborations and cooperation’s with a plethora of high quality training centers and facilities in and throughout the region and contiguous US.  We provide Continuing Education Units (CEUs), which offers a standard unit of measure for continuing adult education and training activities (for example, one CEU is equal to ten (10) contact hours of participation in an organized continuing education/training experience under responsible, qualified direction and instruction), which demonstrates to your organization or employer that you are continually gaining the newest and most applicable information in your specified field. If you or your organization requires CEUs in continuing adult education, please contact us.

CONFERENCES

 
In an attempt to expand on the academic rigors of the university, and to have a much larger Economic Impact (EI) within the community, the CSC offers a plethora of academically driven conferences, which incorporate learning activities (i.e., seminars, field trips, expositions, etc.) in a format that is tailored to the creative industries throughout Colorado. 
 
Although the majority of the conferences held on behalf of the CSC Program are based out of CSU – Pueblo, each individual conference may have a regional fieldtrip component or may be hosted in one of the various communities within the region.  All of the conferences under the CSC Program are geared toward continuing education and adult learning; however, occasionally the CSC Program receives grant funding and donations to assist in the creation of special topic conferences, which can enhance an attendee’s professional goals.
