Online Courses

Graduate credit or CEUs are offered for each of our TIE professional development courses or events and can be requested within six (6) months of completion.

Depending on the course or event, we offer graduate credit through the University of Sioux Falls, individual public universities in South Dakota, and/or the South Dakota Board of Regents for Universal Credit. The Universal Credit option is handled through the University of South Dakota. Students who enroll for graduate credit for workshops offering Board of Regents Universal Credit will have the opportunity to register for credit from the University of their choice: Black Hills State University, Dakota State University, Northern State University, South Dakota State University, University of South Dakota.

CEUs (Continuing Education Units) can be given instead of graduate credit at no cost to the participant. CEUs can be given by the TIE Learning Specialist facilitating the professional development workshop. Individuals can request CEUs upon completion of a workshop. Please note, once a CEU has been issued, it cannot be reissued.

How do I register for graduate credit and make the payment?

University of Sioux Falls credit: Find the workshop you are registering for in USF’s TIE catalog and pay with a credit card through the secure registration system.
