CHES Information

HEAU continually offers CHES credits as a service to its members. HEAU charges members $3.00 for credits at each conference/event to cover costs for certificates, postage and annual provider fees that HEAU is required to pay to NCHEC.  Non members are charged $5 for credits.

Please note that after an event, it may take up to six months for CHES credits to appear on your NCHEC transcript. Credits are submitted to NCHEC twice a year, in January and June.

Please see Conferences and Events for possible CHES credit opportunities.

For more information on CHES please visit the NCHEC web site.
