WELCOME TO ERHARDT VIDEO SEMINARS
Contact hours now provided for our video purchases

Erhardt Developmental Products has been a leader in the production of educational and instructional videos since 1981. Several of our videos have won regional and national awards. We are committed to providing a variety of educational and clinical resources to professionals in the fields of education, allied health, and others who work with children who have special needs. In response to many requests for continuing education awarded through video viewing, we are pleased to announce a new series: Erhardt Video Seminars.

Contact hours
You can earn contact hours at a fee of only $15 for each viewer, plus the cost of each video purchase (DVD format). Each seminar package includes a Verification Exam. A grade of 70% is required to receive a contact hour certificate. If a passing grade is not obtained the viewer may retake the exam a second time at no additional charge. Certificates are dated the day the exam is received and identify the name of the viewer, the title of the seminar, and are signed by Rhoda P. Erhardt, MS, OTR/L, FAOTA, President of Erhardt Developmental Products, as the authorized sponsor.

State Licensure Requirements
All license boards have different criteria for continuing education. Check with your license board to be sure you meet your state requirements. Some boards may place limitations on the number of hours they will allow for Independent Study or Distance Education. It is the viewer's responsibility to understand and conform to their state license requirements. Contact hours include the time viewing the video and the estimated time required to complete the Verification Exam.
