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.
