Reviewed 19 August 2026No account required

Convert contact hours to IACET-style CEUs with the relationship 10 contact hours = 1 CEU, while keeping acceptance separate from the arithmetic.

No account required.

Calculation used

CEUs = contact hours ÷ 10

Formula

CEUs = contact hours ÷ 10. For example, 15 contact hours corresponds to 1.5 CEUs under the IACET definition used here.

A converted number is not an approval

The receiving license or certification program decides whether the activity counts and whether it uses CEUs at all. Verify eligibility before reporting.

Avoid rounding too early

Keep the underlying contact hours and provider record. Apply any rounding rule only when the receiving authority instructs you to do so.
