Continuing Education

DCMP has a variety of methods for professionals to earn continuing education credit: self-paced modules, online workshops, and facilitated QuickClasses. All are free of charge to our members.

Some methods are open to eLearners and some require full membership. Anyone can register for an eLearner membership. Full membership requires that a person works with at least one early learner through high school student with a disability.

Once an eLearning module, workshop, or QuickClass has been successfully completed, participants will receive a certificate. Some trainings are approved for RID (Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf) CEUs and ACVREP (Academy for Certification of Vision Rehabilitation & Education Professionals) credit. Read more about each type of training below.
