Webinars

Welcome to PSI’s webinar library. PSI offers live webinars on various educational topics throughout the year. Presenters include national experts and PSI staff with expertise in their disciplines.

If you are interested in these PSI Webinars, please refer to this site as it is updated frequently with new offerings. We also archive these webinars so you can watch them on demand if you are unable to watch the live presentations.  See and VIEW all of our available webinars below.


NOTE:
  Educators can receive contact hours for attending and watching these webinars.

Some of PSI webinars have been pre-approved for CEU’s from discipline specific licensure boards. This is detailed in the webinar description; if you feel that the webinar may qualify for CEU’s with your licensing board and PSI did not receive pre-approval, it is your responsibility to contact your licensure board to determine such. All attendees who have registered for a PSI webinar that is pre-approved for either contact hours or CEUs will receive a certification upon the completion of the viewing.

 

“One contact hour is equal to 50-60 minutes of actual clock time spent in a board-approved course or activity in the classroom with an instructor. One continuing education unit (CEU) or credit is equal to 10 contact hours; meaning it requires 10 clock hours to complete.”
