CONTINUING EDUCATION C E U CONTINUING EDUCATION KEY Badge Scanning & Certificate of Attendance Electronic badge scanning is used to track Continuing Education Credit at New England GROWS. Here’s how: • Sign up for an ✪ ALL ACCESS PASS and gain admission to all GROWS seminars and the Expo floor. • Provide your Continuing Education Credit and/or license information when you register. • Have your badge scanned when you enter a credit-approved session. Plan to arrive before the session starts to ensure that your badge is scanned – late arrivals cannot earn CEU credit. • After the conference, attendance data is sent to the appropriate pesticide program or accrediting organization. • Your customized Certificate of Attendance will be e-mailed to you within two weeks of the conference and will be available online in your Attendee Service Center at NewEnglandGROWS.org.
