CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDIT
2020 WISE TRADITIONS CONFERENCE
NURSES, ACUPUNCTURISTS AND MASSAGE THERAPISTS
We offer continuing education credits for two professions: nurses and acupuncturists. (Nutritionists and RDs only need a certificate of attendance as explained below.) Once you have signed up and paid for the credits you will have to sign in each morning and provide an evaluation before you depart. Acupuncturists must also submit an attendance record. Nurses get credit for attending the talks listed below. Certificates will be emailed to each CEU-receipient after the conference.
