  1. Diadra Harnden

    I was quite pleased with the breadth and depth of information and the resources provided. The easy-to-copy and access teaching materials and easy-to-follow outlines are a great resource to have in guiding our newly formed Diabetes Support Group. I also thought the evaluation was very helpful and well done…thanks.

  2. Megan Moran, RD, CDE

    I must say, I really really enjoyed this! I have done many self study programs and this one was top notch and so practical. Thank you!

  3. N.M.

    This manual will be a great diabetes reference for me in the future. It covered all the topics I would teach, and is an excellent continuing education resource. Thank you.

  4. Dessa Hartz

    This program was unique compared to other self-study material I’ve completed. It is a real-world teaching curriculum, with supporting materials. I learned a lot from the sample questions and activities throughout the outlines. I found this resource to be valuable in making my education program more effective. Excellent job!

How Testing Works

Skelly Skills offers two types of Continuing Education (CE), also known as Continuing Professional Development (CPD). The two types of CDR-approved CE we offer are:

  1. Prior approved enduring (formerly known as self-study) CE courses using printed, online or eBook formats.
  2. Prior approved live, which are CE webinars.

For each of these types of CE, we offer Continuing Professional Education Units (CPEUs — also called CEUs, clock hours, or CPD hours).

Prior Approved Enduring (formerly Self-study) Courses

Our prior approved enduring CE courses all include a CE exam. This is important for some of you because you *may* be limited by the number of prior approved enduring (aka self-study) hours you can accumulate. For each course, you will need to complete the CE exam through our online testing system. It’s easy and you’ll get your CE Certificate of Completion as soon as you pass the course (or complete the Feedback Survey, in the case of our one-hour on-demand CE webinars).

Prior Approved Live (Live Webinars)

Our live CE webinars include a Feedback Survey. Within 24 hours of the live webinar, we will send an email with the Assessment ID and Key ID to complete the Feedback Survey through our testing system. Once you complete that, you’ll immediately be able to print and/or download your CE Certificate of Completion (it will also be emailed to you).

How to Purchase and Complete a Course

Step 1: Visit Skelly Skills and choose the topic and book or other course type you want to study. The number of CPEUs/CEUs/CPD hours are shown on each product page. Note to international customers: You can change the display currency using the icons on the right of the page.

Step 2: Pay online—you’ll get virtual courses immediately or else you’ll receive the book in the mail along with the CE exam booklet (we call this a ‘CE Evaluation’). Note: for books that we publish in-house, we include the CE exam and testing info in the back of the book, not as a separate booklet.)

Step 3: Study the course content. Once you have finished, complete the online exam at our testing site using the Assessment ID and Key ID (password) provided to you in the CE Evaluation, or on the course webpage if you are completing an on-demand webinar or online course.

That’s it! Once you have passed your exam, you’ll receive a PDF certificate of completion which includes the number of CPEUs/CEUs/CPD hours.

Key Facts About the Course Expiration Dates

  • Every one of our CE courses has an expiration date.
  • The expiration date is set by the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) when they approve the course.
  • You must successfully complete your CE exam and/or feedback survey on or before the course expiration date.
  • Skelly Skills cannot extend the expiration date. You must request an extension in writing from CDR.
  • Skelly Skills does not offer refunds or credits for courses that have expired.
