I've never bothered with getting a CIH since I've gone my own specialized way since 1977 when I started. So I am unfamiliar with the CEU credits that CIHs have to get every year. Now I'd like to know more.

The reason is I'm teaching a 40 hour course in July at UMass-Amherst on Art Safety. It is designed for serious art students, teachers and EH& S people who need to know more about art materials, processes, special ventilation for art, etc. The school is working on getting regular CEU credits for people taking the course, but I assume there is something special about AIHA CEUs, right?

I know CIH people have gotten these credits from enduring some of the trainings/presentations I've done at conferences and events, but I never paid any attention to what that was all about.

I'd love to hear from anyone who can tell me if this is a valid idea, know who to talk to about application, etc.
