Oceantic Network is proud to offer Continuing Education Units (CEUs) at IPF for the first time. As part of our newly earned IACET accreditation (2025), we are piloting CEUs with two select workshops this year. These sessions underwent a rigorous review to ensure they meet the high standards required for CEU eligibility, including clear learning outcomes, qualified instruction, and strong assessment methods.
This pilot allows us to closely monitor quality, streamline processes, and ensure a smooth experience for participants and instructors alike. We look forward to expanding CEU-eligible offerings at future IPF events and throughout our Education & Training programs.
