Frequently Asked Questions

CE, or Continuing Education, courses are typically short, targeted content workshops and may be taken by anyone to hone their skill set for career, personal development; or to meet requirements to hold or retain certain licenses.

CEUs, or continuing education units, are used to gauge knowledge and time spent in a course or studying a certain topic.

Florida Tech’s CE courses can be for anyone but are specifically made for people in or interested in the field of behavior analysis. Parents, teachers, behavior analysts, psychologists, social workers, counselors, speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, individuals who work or live with persons with special needs, students seeking their degree in applied behavior analysis or psychology and students seeking their BCBA® or BCaBA® certification may find these courses enlightening. 

Some courses earn credit for popular human resource professional organizations SHRM® or HRCI®.  You can search for either organization in our catalog to show only eligible courses.  Confirm before enrolling by noting which organization and the number of credits that are earned on the enrollment page.

 In addition to providing instruction for individuals working people with special needs, Florida Tech also offers CEs that can be applied to other fields that require human contact.  Our organizational behavior management (OBM) courses appeal to a wide range of professionals across many industries.

Our courses are administered through the Canvas LMS and your computer must meet Canvas’ requirements.

You should receive your course invite within minutes of registering, occasionally it may take up to 30 minutes.  Occasionally, the invite is sent to your spam/junk folder incorrectly.  You can check there, or login using the following link after activating your account:  https://floridatechce.instructure.com/ 

Important: If you are also enrolled in a degree or certificate program with us, you will login to your courses at two separate instances of Canvas.  For-credit and non-credit courses are not housed together.

Florida Tech does not offer extensions past the expiration date. If you need to repurchase, please email us at ceu@fit.edu for assistance.

Once you have finished all modules, you need to fill out and submit the Completion Survey at the end of the course. This will start the generation process of your certificate of completion, and you will be emailed a copy.  

You can always view and download your generated certificates in Canvas Catalog at the following link - https://floridatechce.pdx.catalog.canvaslms.com/dashboard/completed

Florida Tech CE courses are considered events by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board and do not have a formal syllabus. They are not didactic or synchronous courses. 

You will only need to submit your certificate of completion to the BACB to document the credits earned.  Please classify it as an ACE event. 

Check the enrollment page for the type and number of CEU’s earned.  Some courses may offer more than one type.  For example, the 8-hour supervision course earns either 10 learning CEU’s or 10 supervision CEU’s (you cannot earn both).

The provider number is on the bottom left corner of the certificate you receive after completing the course.  You must submit the survey at the end of each course so the system will generate your certificate of completion.

Feel free to reach out to us at ceu@fit.edu and we’ll be happy to assist you.  Emails are answered in the order in which they are received.
