What our members say

I first joined ISPE when I was a 28-year-old manager of maintenance. I wanted to get active in an organization of professionals who had a passion for making a difference. ISPE is the only society that provides a global opportunity for members of the industry, regulators, and academics to come together to analyze current approaches and find more effective solutions to the challenges facing us today.

Continuing Education Units

ISPE will provide continuing education units (ISPE CEUs) for all North American seminars and courses, including educational programming at the ISPE Annual Meeting. CEUs are nationally recognized units of achievement designed for those individuals continuing their education in their chosen field or profession.

Delegates attending European seminars and courses will receive a Certificate of Attendance, as ISPE CEUs are currently not offered at European events. Verification of CEUs is based on attendance as well as satisfactory completion of all evaluation materials. Statements of credit will be mailed within four weeks of evaluation materials. One hour of education programming equals 0.1 ISPE CEU credits.

About On-line Essentials

This course includes On-line Essentials, a pre-recorded, Web-based session that provides a review of the basics prior to the classroom course. You will receive information via email on how to access the On-line Essential two weeks prior to the start of the training event.
