Continuing Education Unit: A Collection of Five Journal Articles, 1972.

Overview & Synopsis

Using the Georgia plan as his basis for meeting classification needs, Charles B. Lord categorizes programs into five broad areas in "A Classification System for Continuing Education Programs," Adult Leadership, April 1972, pp. 357-359. Paul J. Grogan's "The Concept of a Continuing Education Unit," Indiana State Board of Health Bulletin, May 1972, pp. 10-16, offers a general treatment of the Continuing Education Unit (CEU). Rodney A. Lane's "If the CEU Fits...," National University Extension Association Spectator, June 1972, pp. 22 and 23, is a parody of the National Task Force recommendations, arguing that it is wrong to systematize the process while ignoring the product. In "EduScope/Focus on Education," Data Management, August 1972, pp. 27 and 28, and Sept. 1972 pp. 13 and 14, Donald J. McPherson introduces the CEU concept and considers administrative procedures. C. F. Tripp's "C.E.U.--A New Trend in Education," The Personnel Administrator, Nov./Dec. 1972, pp. 43-45, provides an in-depth look at CEU, underlining its importance in a changing business climate. (MW)
