Want to offer CE?

Is your Nurse Network, agency, or work place planning an educational program specifically related to developmental disabilities nursing? Would you like to offer a certificate that nurse attendees can use toward documenting their required education hours for CDDN or DDC certification? You can submit an application to have your offering recognized as being acceptable for CDDN or DDC renewal purposes. Download the continuing education approval application forms.

If you are a DDNA Chapter official and want to offer an approved CE offering that can be used for state relicensure purposes, contact DDNA's Executive Director who will work with you to plan the offering.
