Kuder ETA Now Offering Continuing Education

We are pleased to announce the availability of Continuing Education Units (CEUs) from Kuder Educational Training Associates (Kuder ETA). In early 2006, Kuder ETA began offering online Career Development Facilitator (CDF) Training, which once completed allows an individual to apply for a Global CDF certification through the Center for Credentialing and Education, Inc. (CCE). In order to maintain the certification, individuals need to obtain 75 hours of continuing education within the areas of competency within a five-year time frame.

The new CEUs, which have been approved by the CCE, can be used to maintain the certification. Kuder ETA is offering eight different CEUs and each is worth either 10 or 15 credit hours. To enroll, please visit www.etainc.com and click on Course Catalog.

For more information on the CEUs or the CDF training, please contact us at 877.777.5833 or info@etainc.com.
