CEUs via PINRA, (Participant Initiated Non-RID Activities)

In order to keep the cost of the training courses down Love2ASL does not offer CEU's for Training Courses,

You may apply for CEUs with a PINRA form, prior to the training course.

Participant Initiated Non-RID Activities (PINRA) include activities that an interpreter/ transliterator wishes to attend but which are not offered by an RID approved sponsor.

The activity must be sponsored by an organization with specific known standards and must have a specific format, educational objectives and purpose.

Instructions for Participant Initiated Non-RID Activities
Instructions for CMP Participants

 
Step One:
Choose the activity/conference you want to attend.

The activity/ conference does not have to pertain strictly to interpreting. It can be a regional or national conference of another profession or could be a formal in-service training by an employer. As long as the activity is educationally beneficial to you as an interpreter, it can earn CEUs for you!

Step Two:
Contact an RID Approved Sponsor and secure their agreement to process the paperwork
for the conference. Be sure to discuss the Content Area for which you are applying (Professional Studies or General Studies).
How many CEUs will be earned? (1 CEU = 10 contact hours)

Step Three:
Complete the Participant Initiated Activity Plan and Activity Report form from your
RID Sponsor.
Attach pertinent documentation such as an agenda, program book.
Return form and documentation to your Sponsor who will keep the form until your
activity is completed.
This form must be sent to your Sponsor before the activity begins!!

Step Four:
Upon completion of the activity, attain a certificate of attendance or documentation
such as an agenda or program book. Send documentation to your Sponsor.
