AIA CES

Members who present a program or class, or serve on a panel, or give a speech one hour or longer can self-report the topics as a structured activity program. If the topic relates to HSW, members can claim the program as HSW. AIA members can self-report the research and preparation time for presentations, speeches, classes that they teach. The research must be self-reported as self-designed and, regardless of the topic, will not qualify for HSW credit. The AIA allows a maximum of 10 LU hours of research time for each hour of actual class presentation time. Members may select just one option, either teaching credit or research, but cannot claim both for the same event.

University/College faculty:
Full-time (FT) university faculty can not apply for credit if the course in question is part of their regular curriculum workload. They can however, apply for credit if the course or program is “outside” of their normal work assignments. Part-time (PT) faculty can apply for teach credit for any course taught once every 3 years.

For each semester hour of credit assigned to the course the AIA will allow 15 LUs hours. (1 semester hour = 15 LU hours; 3 semester hours = 45 LU hours, etc…)
For each quarter hour of credit assigned to the course the AIA will allow 10 LUs hours. (1 semester hour = 10 LU hours; 3 semester hours = 30 LU hours, etc…)
