The Behavior Analyst Certification Board® considers every 50 minutes of instruction to be equivalent to one continuing education unit (CEU). The length of time an individual takes to complete a self-paced tutorial can vary widely, however, and is difficult to track accurately (since you could take a long sandwich break or something in the middle of the tutorial and we would never know). Thus, we have adopted a standard formula for determining CEUs for our self-paced tutorials:
- Each screen = 30 seconds of instruction
A common rule of thumb in the elearning/training world is that each screen = 1 minute of instruction. However, research conducted on an early version of our tutorial format indicates that 30 seconds per screen is more accurate, thus we use that for our formula. Neat, huh?
