How is CEU credit calculated for service on the State Board?

The calculation of Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for service on the State Board is designed to recognize the contribution and time commitment of board members. The correct approach is to award 1 hour of CEU credit for each hour that a member serves on the board. This method emphasizes the significance of the responsibilities and the expertise that board members bring to their roles, ensuring that their time is appropriately acknowledged in terms of educational credits.

Board service often involves detailed work, including making policy decisions, reviewing regulations, and ensuring compliance with health facility standards. Therefore, allowing a full hour of credit for each hour served reflects the rigorous nature of this service.

In contrast, other options suggesting lesser credit or no credit for board service do not adequately recognize the effort and commitment needed for such roles.
