We primarily conduct our activities/meetings in the Spring.  From time to time, we may alternate the location of the CSS to another city within South Carolina that best serves the CSS members' needs.  The Regular Session of our meetings are a 2-day educational opportunity for our members.  Continuing Education Credit is provided for those who attend the complete session.  CEUs are not distributed per speaker, but are awarded at the end of the Regular Session.  The workshops are a recent addition at the request of our members and provide a class or mini-course by qualified instructors.  Participants receive additional CEUs at the close of the workshop.
