The University of Memphis Professional & Continuing Education department awards the Continuing Education Unit (CEU) for satisfactory completion of some of our non-credit courses. The CEU is a nationally recognized, uniform unit of measurement awarded at the rate of one CEU for each ten contact hours of participation. Conditions for satisfactory completion: Participants must (1) be properly registered and pay all fees before classes begin; (2) attend 75% of scheduled classes; and (3) achieve a "satisfactory" rating from the instructor. NOTE: Some courses provided by Professional and Continuing Education may not meet the criteria for awarding CEUs or CPEs. If you want to know whether your course qualifies for CEUs or CPEs, please call our offices at 901.678.6000 or check the course information available on the registration site.

Duplicate CEU certificates are available for a $10 fee. Download the form here. Please allow five business days for a duplicate certificate request to be processed.

Customers may obtain transcripts for some non-credit courses taken and CEU and/or CPE credits earned. These are available for up to five years after the end of the course. Please complete the required form and submit it to our office. There is no charge for transcripts, but we ask that you allow five business days for processing.

Parking at the University
Due to the short-term nature of most classes, the garage parking (located on Fogelman Drive and on Zach Curlin) is recommended as the most convenient and cost-effective option for our customers. Go to Parking and Transportation Services for all parking options for the UofM campus.

Tiger Escort is an escort service provided to students, faculty, staff, and visitors of the University. Call 678-4663 (678-HOME) to request an escort.
