Parking for the conference will be in the UVU parking garage to the north of the Sorenson Student Center. The cost of parking is included in your ticket, so you will not need to pay.

You can earn Continuing Education Units (CEUs) by attending our conference! To receive credits, simply complete an online survey after each session. To receive live credits, the survey must be completed on the day of the conference. Each hour of attendance equates to 1 CEU, and this year’s conference offers the opportunity to earn up to 18 CEUs. By participating in all sessions, you can achieve the full 18 CEUs. Notably, the conference includes specialized content: 3 CEUs will focus on Suicide Prevention, and 4 CEUs will be dedicated to Ethics. All CEUs are NASW-approved.

The surveys can be accessed via the conference portal. They are located to the right of the video presentation. You'll see two tabs: "Chat" and "Survey." To complete the survey, simply click on the "Survey" tab and fill out the required information.

Here are the steps to earn CEUs from a different organization or an organization outside of Utah.

1. Attend the conference sessions and complete the required surveys to receive your CEU certificate. The certificates will be emailed to you by December 13th.

2. After receiving your CEU certificate, it's important to send the conference program and the certificate to the organization where you wish to apply for CEUs. These documents are key in providing details about the sessions you attended and supporting your application for credit with the other organization.

Please note that while we provide the necessary documentation, approval, and acceptance of CEUs by other organizations are beyond our control. We recommend directly contacting the organization for specific requirements or additional information.

CEU emails will be sent to the email you registered with no later than Friday, December 13th. If you cannot find your CEU email, please check your spam folder, as they are often redirected. If you still cannot find them, please reach out to [email protected] for help.
