State Board Continuing Education Units (SB-CEUs)

Changes to SB-CEUs

All SB-CEU earned after January 1, 2010 will be awarded to educators and administrators via a Secure Central Registry (SCR). Once uploaded to the SCR, participants will receive an email directing them to the web address to complete a personal account and evaluation.

The requirements for your personal account will be a valid email address and a Personal Identification Code (PIC). The PIC is distributed by the Registry of Educational Personnel (REP). Contact your administrator or Human Resources Department in your home district for your PIC number.

After completion of the personal account, participants follow the instructions to complete a required evaluation of the offering. After the evaluation is completed, SB-CEUs will be awarded and listed on an unofficial transcript.

What are SB-CEUs?

SB-CEUs are State Board-Continuing Education Units. For teachers, administrators, school counselors and school psychologists in the state of Michigan, they can be an inexpensive alternative for participants to maintain their certification.

In Michigan, teachers who hold Professional or Occupational certificates, school psychologists, school counselors and school administrators need to earn six semester hours of college credit through an approved teacher preparation institute or 18 SB-CEUs or a combination of both in a five year period. Three SB-CEUs equal one semester hour of college credit.
