Abstract	In working toward a goal of encouraging all nurses to participate in continuing education programs, the Florida Nurses Association has defined its standards for continuing education certification. A certification board was established, and the purpose for certification outlined. Four concepts are explained in the standards: certification, the manner in which recognition is given, how the continuing education unit (CEU) is to be used, and the certification requirements. Activities and professional participation are considered in examples of the contact hours and their relationship to the CEU. Procedures for obtaining CEU for programs are outlined. The Maryland Licensed Practical Nurses Association defines the continuing education program, states the objectives which the application for CEU will fulfill, and outlines the continuing education program administration. Procedures for recording CEU are itemized, and standards for assigning credit established. Licensure requirements are restated. (AG)
