A continuing education unit (CEU) is the standard unit of measurement used in Design Study Institute's non-degree professional certificate programs to quantify the amount of contact hours required to achieve the student learning outcomes of a course.
One CEU unit requires 600 minutes of instructional time. Instructional time refers to periods of direct, supervised learning activities led by a qualified faculty member or teaching assistant. Instructional time can include such activities as classroom lectures, supervised studio work sessions, viewing pre-recorded videos, or participating in guided discussions.
