About YACEP (Yoga Alliance Continue Educating Program) - American Yoga Alliance

Yoga Alliance, the nonprofit governing body of yoga that regulates the training programs and specifications in the U.S., requires that teachers take at least 30 continuing education units (CEUs) every three years, from the date they first registered as yoga teacher (in addition to teaching at least 45 hours during that time, as well). While in-person trainings are the best, through workshops at your studio or at yoga conferences, teachers can also get CEU credits through non-contact hours. One CEU hour is credited to teachers for every five hours of non-contact study, which could be studying through yoga books, magazines, DVDs, participating in webinars or online courses, publishing your own work on yoga, or even creating class materials.
