Many Professions. One Learning Community.

Learn across disciplines. Grow in your profession. Strengthen the communities you serve.

From social work and behavioral health to education, community services, leadership, legal systems, spiritual care, aging services, and beyond, our continuing education brings professionals together to learn, grow and better serve others. We clearly identify the CE credit offered with each course and provide guidance to help participants determine how that education may apply to their license, certification, credential or professional development goals.

SLU’s sessions and workshops support ongoing professional growth and development and help practitioners meet licensure, certification, credentialing and continuing education requirements. Workshops are open to professionals, practitioners and emerging professionals across disciplines, roles and practice settings, including both clinical and non-clinical areas.
