About IACET:
IACET is a non-profit association dedicated to quality continuing education and training programs and certifies education providers that meet strict continuing education guidelines. IACET certification is the standard learners seek for quality when they choose a provider. Only IACET Authorized Providers can offer the IACET CEU, the hallmark of quality in continuing education and training. The primary purpose of the CEU is to provide a permanent record of the educational accomplishments of an individual who has completed one or more significant non-credit educational experiences. Awarding the CEU approved by IACET also provides a quality indicator for a learner's continuing education and training programs because it means they have been reviewed and approved for complying with internationally recognized standards.
