Certificate of Completion

Continuing Education Units: In addition to receiving a certificate of completion, participants are eligible to earn 2.1 Continuing Education Units (CEUs)* based on the 21 total program hours. To determine if and how these CEUs apply to professional certification, licensing, or required training, please check directly with your training department or licensing authority and review their documentation requirements.
Students are responsible for verifying if this course qualifies for their organization's tuition reimbursement program (if applicable) or towards professional certification requirements. Brown is not able to provide documentation beyond the Certificate of Completion and course materials that are provided as part of the course.
* Note that CEU redemption varies by credentialing body, for the exact number of CEUs, please visit the website of your specific license, certification, or exam.
