Teachers can now check their CEU's by logging into their TimeKeeper account.
Attached below are the CEU requirements for the 2019-2020 school year. Please notice that teachers are required to earn 2.0 CEU's of digital learning credit.
CEU's have to be counted during the year they were earned. Often teachers ask if CEU credits they earned can be counted for their next renewal cycle. Unfortunately, this is not allowable. The only exception to this is CEU's earned for obtaining National Board certification.
Do you have a certificate that needs to be added to your CEU report? Click here for the step by step directions on how to submit your certificate.
An appointment is required for any employee that needs to change their legal name. After an employee receives their new driver's license and social security card, they can contact Tammy Huffman at 439-4322 to schedule an appointment to officially change their name with Burke County Public Schools.
