Course InstructionA participant may develop and present information (a speech, workshop, short course and teleconference) and receive Independent Study CEUs for the development and presentation.

Credit will be given only once during the cycle for each activity presented. | MentorshipA participant may engage in a focused learning relationship with pre-approved goals and learning outcomes. CEUs may be awarded to both participants in the mentorship relationship. However, great care should be give to identify the learning the mentor (target of the Independent Study) will achieve. The independent Study, if written for the mentor, will only consider the knowledge gained by the mentor and not apply in any fashion to the work done by the protege or mentee. These CEUs are FREE to GaRID members. | Literature ReviewA participant may review literature on a specified topic and submit a written summary. The summary could include critical comments and a plan for incorporating acquired information into professional practice. |
