Continuing Education Units

Certified Crop Advisers (CCA)

• CCAs attending a live webcast should type their name, CCA# and email address into the "chat" pod. This information will be submitted to the CCA program.
• CCAs viewing any of our past (archived) webcasts can receive credit through the self-study option by following links on the CCA Continuing Education page.

American Registry of Professional Animal Scientists (ARPAS)

• ARPAS members viewing live webcasts should type their name, "ARPAS" and email address into the chat pod. The member is still responsible for reporting their attendance to the association.
• ARPAS members viewing any of our past webcasts can also self-certify those credits at the ARPAS Continuing Education page.

Other Programs

• Members of other programs attending live webcasts, should log into the virtual meeting room with their first and last name. After the webcast, they should request an attendance list, and flyer from the project manager, Jill Heemstra at jheemstra@unl.edu. The member can submit that information to their certifying organization for consideration.
• Members of other programs viewing archived webcasts can request a quiz from the project manager which, after completion, can be submitted along with the flyer to the certifying organization for consideration.
