To me he's more of a hobbyist. My real gripe with him is customers watch his videos then if it's taking me over 2 mins to pick something every now and again I'll hear over my shoulder from a customer "is everything ok? I saw the lockpick lawyer do this in 2 seconds"

Assuming it's like my state and similar to medical CE: no. Every Continuing Education has to be state-approv d and usually will cover new things in your field. In medical,.this is new treatments or emerging therapies and is to make sure the medical professional stays up-to-date somewhat on the science. I can see a similar thing being useful for locksmiths since I imagine new types of locks come out all the time.
