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:
For each of these types of CE, we offer Continuing Professional Education Units (CPEUs — also called CEUs, clock hours, or CPD hours).
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).
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).
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.
Purchase your webinar and receive a link to the webinar immediately.Â
Watch your webinar and then submit the CE Feedback Survey form by the course expiration date.
After submitting your CE Feedback Survey, you will be able to download your CPEU/CEU certificate as a pdf and keep for your records.

This course ties together nutrition for concussions from start to finish. It explains the mechanisms of action, cites proper literature, and gives exact takeaways you can apply in your practice. It’s great!
Tiffany Champagne-Langabeer, PhD, RDN, LD, IFNCP, Owner of Sunrise Integrative Nutrition –
This Concussion course provides an opportunity to level up your skills with an extensive background on traumatic brain injury, neuroinflammation, the gut-brain connection, and so much more. I highly recommend this course to anyone working with individuals with cognitive decline. You will learn step-by-step how to assist your patients using the latest research and evidence-based methodologies.

I appreciated the content addressing all vitamins and minerals. I have read content that only addresses macros or only talks about 1 or 2 vitamins. This book did a good job of covering all aspects of nutrition and some non-nutritional interventions.
Athena Biggs, RDN, Spokane, WA –
There is a general loss of information on the systemic effects concussion has on the human body in the medical field. To have a concussion or postconcussive disorder can be life altering and devastating. It is complex. The truths in this book and the gap in its awareness are a call to action in a medical area still on the frontier. This book offers early intervention strategies to change course through accessible, manageable actions. This information needs to be known. Nutrition is the cornerstone to identifying and treating concussion symptoms with an integrative approach, to support a quick and efficient recovery to a client. This book has a wealth of vital information. I speak from experience with concussion–this information is needed. This book is a powerful guide to concussion recovery.
