CEU Events

What CEU Events does

CEU Events, operated by Siwy Enterprises LLC and founded in 2017, is a private, bootstrapped software company that operates a cloud-based continuing education (CE) management platform focused on the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industries. The platform serves four stakeholder groups: continuing education providers, instructors/presenters, licensed-professional attendees, and hosting location managers. Its core product is a web-based SaaS platform with native iOS and Android applications that automate the full CE lifecycle — course and event creation, QR-code-based attendance tracking, automatic certificate generation, and scheduled credit reporting to 100+ state licensing boards and professional associations including AIA, IDCEC, and GBCI. The platform's distinguishing capability is a course review and recognition service that catalogs and validates courses against the specific CE requirements of each of these 100+ organizations, creating a regulatory-compliance knowledge base the company describes as industry-first.

The product surface spans several modules: the core CEU Events Platform for providers, a public searchable Course Library of approved courses, a State Licensing Boards & Associations directory, the CEU Events Places add-on for location-host relationship management, and Course Review and Recognition as a paid service that handles filings and renewals on behalf of providers. A Boosted Events promotion product offers performance-based visibility at $10 per registration, with a $500 minimum campaign budget. Revenue is generated primarily through tiered subscription plans (Starter, Professional, Premium, Enterprise) sold to providers, supplemented by the Course Review and Recognition annual fees and Boosted Events transaction revenue. Attendee and instructor accounts are free, supporting a bottom-up growth motion in which providers gain audience access through the platform's 160,000+ registered attendees and 5,000+ instructors.

The company operates with a deliberately small team (1–10 employees) from a single headquarters in Alhambra, California, and has expanded service coverage to Canada. Its technology stack runs on Google Cloud infrastructure, with payments via Stripe and Authorize.Net, customer support via Zendesk, marketing automation through HubSpot, and email delivery through SendGrid; instructors can deliver webinar content through any preferred tool — Zoom, WebEx, or Microsoft Teams — while CEU Events handles the attendance and reporting layer. The company is GDPR-, CCPA-, and DMCA-compliant, and there is no evidence of institutional venture or private equity investment.

Direct peers

• AEC Daily: AEC Daily is a continuing education platform serving architecture, engineering, and construction professionals with on-demand courses and credit reporting. It directly competes with CEU Events in the same AEC CE category with overlapping provider and attendee base.
• Kaplan CE (CE Direct): Kaplan CE Direct provides continuing education courses and credit reporting for licensed professionals including architects, engineers, and interior designers. It is a direct competitor to CEU Events in online CE delivery and state-board reporting.

Broad incumbents

• Vector Solutions (RedVector): Vector Solutions, which absorbed RedVector, provides continuing education and training for architecture, engineering, and construction professionals as part of a broader workforce compliance and safety platform. It overlaps with CEU Events' AEC CE offering but operates across many other industries.
• Hanley Wood CEU: Hanley Wood (Zonda) operates CEU programs and media properties targeting architects, builders, and design professionals. It is comparable to CEU Events as a provider-focused CE content and credit-reporting channel within the AEC industry.
• Coursera for Business: Coursera offers accredited continuing education content across many licensed professions and could credibly expand into AEC CE. It is a broader incumbent in online professional learning and competes for provider and enterprise learning budgets.
• LinkedIn Learning: LinkedIn Learning provides online professional courses that increasingly include CE-eligible content for licensed professionals. It is a broad incumbent with the audience scale and enterprise distribution that CEU Events lacks.
• Degreed: Degreed is a learning experience platform that tracks skills, certifications, and continuing education across an enterprise workforce. It is a broad incumbent in the CE/skills-tracking category and competes for enterprise training budgets with vertical players like CEU Events.

Emerging players

• Bluebeam (Nemetschek): Bluebeam is a software platform for AEC professionals and has explored training and certification programs. It is an emerging adjacent player that could integrate CE workflows into its existing AEC design and collaboration tools.
• Thinkific: Thinkific is an online course platform used by continuing education providers to deliver and monetize courses. It is comparable to CEU Events as a course/event delivery and management layer, though it lacks the CE-specific credit-reporting integrations.
• LearnDash: LearnDash is a WordPress-based LMS used by training providers, including CE-focused organizations. It overlaps with CEU Events as a course and learner management layer, though it is a generic LMS without vertical-specific compliance automation.
