What is the difference between CE’s, CEU’s, CECH’s, and CME’s?
These are specific contact hours given with different measurement and guidelines. Many organizations will use these terms for contact hours and will use them interchangeably. BCEN uses contact hours, which is the same as CE (Continuing Education). If you find an organization using CECH’s, CERP’s, CEARP’s, and CME’s they all equal the same as a contact hour. If an organization uses CEU’s it is not the same as contact hours. For every CEU it equals 10 contact hours.
