Feedback:
The nurse should satisfactorily complete a test to be awarded CEUs if the course was taken by correspondence or on the Internet. The nurse is not required to appear for an interview to be awarded CEUs. Payment of the entire course fee is not a criterion for being awarded CEUs. CEUs can be awarded immediately on completion of the course, but not if the course was taken by correspondence or on the Internet.
