Home Study / Distance Learning

CENAPS offers a series of text-based Home Study/Distance Learning courses where participants can earn Continuing Education (CE) credits.

CE Descriptions for Gorski-CENAPS independent home study courses:

• One (1) CE credit (or credit hour) = sixty (60) minutes of education time.
• One (1) CE hour (60 minutes of education time) is offered for each 6,000 words of the text associated with the home study course. Text of less that 6000 words is measured on a proportionated basis, e.g. 1500 words of text is equivalent to a quarter hours (0.25).

To earn CE credits and a certificate of completion for a CENAPS-Gorski course, participants must complete an assessment demonstrating they completed the home study.
