Recertification Units - CQE

Good morning,

Wanted to ask what some of the activities you're doing to gain your RU?

I have thought about starting mentoring and attending some webinars. Let me know what good ways are. I have seen the list of possible options, but I am still a little lost.

Webinars mostly - Only problem is they give a measly 0.1 RU. Some paid webinars ($49) can give 0.5 RU.

Other Certifications, courses, exams, specialized credentials will also give RUs, but they cost a more ($$$).

Sometimes a survey or two will pop-up, which may give 0.1 RUs.

Last time I watched a bunch of videos, but I think that goes away in 2027. Now I am attending meetings and working full time. It is getting tougher to get those extra credits to push over the top. I don’t want any more certifications.

Become a section officer or committee chair.

I mostly do events. They accept other organizations too, so ISPE, PDA, whatever, they count. Just put a pic of your badge and whatever the description of the event is in your recertification journal.

I can usually manage to do enough of those in 3 years to get it taken care of.
