SHCA - Continuing Education Contact Hours (CEUs)



SHCA strives to promote continuing education for its members through the annual conference and other online learning opportunities.

Applications for contact hours will be submitted on most SHCA education offerings.  If contact hours are pursued you will find the following statement(s) on the applicable education page and/or marketing materials stating:

  • This activity has been submitted to Illinois Nurses Association Approver Unit for approval to award contact hours. Illinois Nurses Association is accredited as an approver of continuing nursing education by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation, and/or
  • An application for approval of continuing education contact hours has been submitted to the National Association of Social Workers.

Once the continuing education application(s) is approved, there will be an approval statement listed on the applicable materials.

To receive Social Work or Nursing credit you will need to complete a special form before or during the education program.

Upon completion of the program evaluation, SHCA will send you the certificate(s) from NASW and/or INA with their respective approval numbers.
