Continuing Ed / CEUs
For Members & Non-Members
The HCECA offers continuing education for members and non-members alike. All continuing education courses are approved for license renewal in the state of Maryland.
Upon completion of each course you will receive a certificate from HCECA certifying your credit hours.
Continuing Education courses are not offered solely for license renewal. They are also for professional- and self-enrichment and for gaining additional knowledge in the industry.
Here’s a guide to different types of instruction:
In-person Learning: Students attend class at the HCC campus with instructor and other students.
Virtual Learning: Students access a live class via Zoom; requires students to have a computer or device with camera and speakers in order to participate. Students must be visible to instructor in order to receive credit for the class. *You can use up to 5 hours of live virtual classes to count as in-person learning, per the State of Maryland.
Online Learning: Currently we are not offering online classes; however, you can take them through online educational providers. These types of classes can be taken anytime to fit your schedule. You are permitted to only use five hours of self-paced online classes towards your license, and you must complete the additional five hours either in-person or virtual.
