*Free CEU's - PsyBC Memberships*

Dear Colleague,

I am considering offering memberships to PsyBC that would provide you with considerable savings as you fulfill your continuing education requirements. Members would receive *free CE credits* for all of PsyBC's online library papers, videos, and CD's, as well as for our online seminars, conferences, symposia, and interactive case studies (currently being developed).

If this is of interest to you it is very important to take our poll. Making the technical changes to allow such memberships will be expensive and I will need to know that there is sufficient interest before making the commitment. (See survey for details of how it would work and why I would like to do this.)

Sincerely,
Daniel Hill, PhD
