CONTINUING EDUCATION CONTACT HOURS

A Continuing Education Contact Hours certificate will be available on each person's name tag with the number of hours they registered for. It can be submitted to DOE by anyone who does not wish to earn graduate credit. TIE does not keep track of contact hours - it is up to each individual to keep track of their own hours and submit them to DOE.

To learn more about continuing education contact hours, please refer to South Dakota Department of Education's website.

All other credit questions can be directed to Becky Fish, Graduate Credit Coordinator - TIE, 605-721-4515.
