ASNT CEUs
Definition of CEU
The Continuing Education Unit (CEU) has been designed as a uniform unit of
measurement to facilitate the accumulation and exchange of standardized information
about individual participation in noncredit continuing education. The CEU is
intended to serve all interests, whether public or private, and whether individual,
institutional, organizational, governmental or societal.
History of ASNT CEUs
In July 1977, ASNT adopted a plan whereby CEUs could be awarded through ASNT for educational and training programs involving NDT. ASNT is accredited by and follows the guidelines established by the International Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET).
Objectives of the CEU Program
The major objectives of the CEU program are: (1) to encourage continuing education
in NDT and related technology; (2) to provide incentive for participation in
local and national ASNT educational programs; (3) to provide uniformity in ASNT
Section offerings in that they follow established guidelines and secure ASNT
Education and Qualification Council approval; (4) to establish permanent records
for individual ASNT participants for accumulating, updating, and transferring
information concerning noncredit continuing education experiences; (5) to provide
information to help ASNT Headquarters develop programs; and (6) to establish
a system of recognition for individuals upgrading their NDT and related skills.
