Serving as an instructor

Serving as an instructor for training, courses, workshops, seminars, presentations or conferences for library or library-related communities is eligible for continuing education credit. Credit hours are given at the rate of 2X the number of hours of the actual instruction and may be used only once for each class, regardless of how many times it is taught.

For example, if you teach a 3 contact-hour Basic Reference workshop, the instructor is eligible for 6 contact hours continuing education credits.  You would be limited to just 6 hours regardless of how many times you taught this particular workshop. Maximum number of hours received per class is 10.

To obtain credit:

• Fill out and submit an Instructor Plan to the Continuing Education Consultant.  This includes information on the learning objectives, what activities will be used to achieve the learning objectives and how the students will be evaluated.
• Following the class, you will need to submit a report of what was projected in the original Instructor Plan, along with any handouts from the class and a summary of the class evaluations to the Continuing Education Consultant.
• After receiving this material, the Continuing Education Consultant will award the CE credit due.  This will serve as a certificate of completion and should be kept with the person's other continuing eduction certificates.
