CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION (CPE) COURSES
CIU 20 currently offers high quality, cost-effective continuing education courses to educators in IU 20 public, non-public and vocational-technical schools. Educators have the ability to attend PDE approved 3-credit*, graduate- level courses for Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits during the spring, summer and fall semesters. The courses, taught online throughout the CIU 20 region and beyond are offered in a variety of topical educational needs. These courses provide educators with an alternative to more costly graduate credit.
