Continuing Education Courses

Continuing Education (CE) courses are 3.5 hours each and are held either Sunday morning (8:00 am–11:30 am), or Sunday afternoon (1:00 pm–4:30 pm). Preregistration is required, and seating is limited. Times listed are in Central Standard Time.

CE AM and PM course registrants may switch to a different AM and PM course without paying an additional course registration fee until November 4. After November 4, switching courses will be regarded as a separate registration, and an additional course fee will be required.
