CERTIFICATES

Certificates are issued for successful completion of Dream Studies Continuing Education (CE) hours. The certificate provides a permanent record of training that may be applicable for insurance panels, hospital staff status, or independent study credit at educational institutions. Please keep in mind that each state and each profession’s licensing board may have different requirements. ASD CE hours can potentially be used to document training that may be required for admittance or continuation on insurance panels, on hospital or clinic staffs, or in educational institutions. CE credit is not synonymous with any kind of academic credit. However, CE credit may become part of independent study credit if the academic institution agrees to accept the credit. In general, CE hours can provide a permanent record of training received for varied professional purposes. ASD cannot guarantee that any particular license board will accept the CE units obtained at this conference.

ASD maintains records of CE units earned. A certificate is issued at the end of the conference when all evaluation forms have been completed and CE monitors have checked the CE attendance log. Credits must be checked by monitors during the conference and tallied at the end of the conference if CE credit is to be awarded. ASD will not mail a certificate unless requested and can only grant the receipt of a certificate if all procedures listed above have been followed. There is a $25.00 handling fee imposed by ASD if a replacement certificate is requested. Suggestions or comments about these programs or the ASD CE credit program may be directed to: ASD CE Chair, Alan Siegel, Ph.D. at either Dreamsdr@aol.com  or through the ASD Central office at asdcentraloffice@aol.com .
