About Us
CEU Creations was founded in 2010 by social worker Anne McSweeney to meet the need for affordable and engaging CE trainings for helping professionals. Our unique business model connects valuable resources with these helping professionals, allowing us to keep costs low for our attendees. Using unconventional and innovative approaches to learning, our trainings are true experiences with informative and fun content.
From its inception, CEU Creations was rooted as a family business. In December 2023, CEU Creations was acquired by another small business, Level Education Group, which includes CE4Less, NurseCE4Less and CCM4Less as well. Between our brands, we have live CE webinars, video-on-demands and text-based CEs as well. As we continue to grow and evolve, one thing definitely won't change – our commitment to #NoMoreBoringCEUs!
