Points of Interest

Why did CCAPS decide to cancel the in-person Concrete Conference? 

CCAPS decided to shift from an in-person conference to an online format because it will allow us to provide quality continuing education sessions while providing more flexibility to those who are unable to attend in person or attend one day of sessions. Now the concrete presentations will be offered over several weeks and in a convenient format so more attendees can obtain continuing education units (CEUs). This supports one of the College’s core values of access and inclusion to educational programs needed to achieve your goals.

I look forward to networking at the Concrete Conference. Will there be opportunities to network during the Concrete & Structural Engineering Webinar Series?

We understand that networking is an important aspect for building connections. There will be a 15-minute break during each webinar but it will not be the best platform to network as you will only have access to the chat feature in the Zoom room.

The Professional Development Learning department who coordinates the webinar series will be posting on LinkedIn. You may want to follow the UMN Professional Development LinkedIn account, like posts, and connect with those who also express interest in the webinar series.

How many CEUs will I receive for each three-hour session in the Concrete Structural Engineering Webinar Series?

We issued 0.65 CEU to those who attended the full Annual Concrete Conference. For the Concrete and Structural Engineering Webinar series, each webinar awards 0.3 CEU. One University of Minnesota College of Continuing and Professional Studies CEU is defined as 10 contact hours of participation in an organized continuing education experience under responsible sponsorship, capable direction, and qualified instruction.

How many sessions do I need to attend to get the same amount of credits I received for attending the Concrete Conference?

Depending on your continuing education needs, you can register individually for two or three webinars, for example, or even the whole series.

  • Attend one webinar (three hours long) = 0.3 CEU
  • Attend two webinars (three hours long) = 0.6 CEU
  • Attend three webinars (three hours long) = 0.9 CEU

Who should I reach out to regarding past Concrete Conference CEUs in the future?
