MNA Continuing Education Approval Program (CEAP)

The Michigan Nurses Association is accredited by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) as an approver of nursing continuing education. Using criteria developed by the ANCC Commission on Accreditation, the MNA Continuing Education Approval Program (CEAP) provides a system of peer review of nursing continuing education activities and providers.


There are two CEAP applications:

Each application contains extensive instructions, the fees and the submission timeframes. These are available in MS Word or PDF format. Select what will work best for your system, download it and fill it out. See instructions in the application for further information.

Educational Activity Application (Word)

This application is for an activity that involves either participant attendence (e.g. conference) or one designed for completion by the learners, independently, at the learner's own pace (self-study).

Provider Application (Word)

Approval as a provider is recognition of a provider's capacity to award contact hours for continuing education activities, planned, implemented and evaluated by the provider. The provider may offer an unlimited number of educational activities during the period of approval. To apply as a provider, three educational activities must have previously been approved.

Due to the large volume of applications received, MNA has established deadlines for submission. These deadlines are found on the front of the application. Retroactive approval of applications is not authorized by ANCC.
