Continuing Education

Attend ACE 2024 for the opportunity to receive Continuing Education credit! 

Continuing Education Credits – Registered attendees are eligible to request certificates for Professional Development Hours (PDH) or Continuing Education Units (CEU) for participation in technical sessions and courses. Attendees interested in receiving Continuing Education credit should sign in at every technical session and course that they attend. A&WMA will award and distribute credit allocations after the conference.

The full conference technical sessions can earn you up to 17 professional development hours, full day courses are 7 hours, and half day courses are 3.5 hours.

Professional Development Hours are only available for attending the Technical Sessions/Technical Program. Keynote Addresses, time spent in the Exhibit Hall, luncheons, networking events, and tours are not eligible for Continuing Education credit.

Continuing Education requirements vary according to location and profession. Meeting registrants are responsible for verifying whether Continuing Education credits offered by A&WMA can be used toward maintenance of their license or certification. All final decisions regarding certificate acceptance will be made by the licensing organization to which the certificate is submitted.  ​

Certificates of participation must be requested through the A&WMA online store. A&WMA members can order a complimentary certificate of participation for all conferences, webinars, and courses. Non-members must pay a $25 fee per certificate. We ask that attendees claim Continuing Education credit prior to July 31, 2024.

Questions regarding Continuing Education accreditation should be emailed to Gloria Henning at glhenning@awma.org.
