Need resources for developing CEU programs

Hi. I am an RN and have recently started presenting 1 hour CEU's for hospitals, insurance companies, etc. I am currently getting work through a healthcare education company (I am working as an independent contractor and am not an employee) who contracts with the various organizations. I am strictly a presenter of the education company's material and, therefore, make a fraction of what is charged to the organizations. I found that I really enjoy doing this, have gotten good feedback on the evaluation forms and realize through discussion with participants after the presentation that there is definitely a market for good onsight CEUs. I have also determined that I could develop good programs myself and have begun to research what is involved in getting programs approved as CEU's as well as what topics people are interested in so I can branch out totally on my own.

The question I have is this: Are there any sources for pre-prepared topics or outlines for this very purpose or does one have to develop programs from scratch? I realize that a lot of research and cross-referencing needs to be done as well as organizing the material into a good presentation but I haven't been able to find a source to use as a jumping board. Is anyone out there in the business of providing CEUs and, if so, how do you go about developing your programs?

Thanks for any input!

Make sure to go the ethical and proper route and not target any clients this company has sent you to. They are their clients, not yours. To take their clients that you have come to know due to their programs amounts to stealing.

Now that I've said that piece, you should have no shortage of customers. I have a friend doing this in spare time that makes great money. Also does CPR and ACLS. I think he bought some pre-made "courses" from some company and went from there. Paid for a new $60,000 car in cash from a year of doing classes very part-time! The money is there no doubt, but he's claiming that the market is beginning to get flooded with CEU companies. Doesn't seem to be hurting his business any though.

?Question? I've done some workshop presenting but want to market further. Does your friend have any suggestions for marketing oneself and what is a ballpark figure of what to charge for giving a presentation - hourly rate? I'm in the midwest. Thanks
