The University of Maine will award an appropriate number of Continuing Education Units (CEUs) to those who satisfactorily complete a non-credit course/program. The CEU, generally recognized throughout the country, has been adopted as a uniform means of recording, measuring, and recognizing efforts in noncredit, post-secondary education. The CEU is defined nationally as ten contact hours of participation in an organized continuing education experience under responsible sponsorship, capable direction, and qualified instruction. The Continuing Education Division maintains permanent records. An official transcript showing the course titles and the number of CEUs earned will be issued upon request. The Continuing Education Division is responsible for the administration of internally initiated courses/programs. The Conference Services Division administers the CEUs for all externally initiated Programs. CEUs may not be converted to degree credit. For more information call (207) 581-3414.
