CEU Information

CEU Reporting

ASHA CEUs or professional development hours are awarded for plenary sessions, concurrent sessions, exhibitor education sessions, roundtable discussions, posters, and the Workload Implementation Practicum. You must complete a session in full in order to claim it for credit. The number of credits you earn is determined by the total hours of CEU sessions you complete. The amount of CEU time for each session is listed with its description.

ASHA CEUs are awarded only through the ASHA Continuing Education Registry. Participation in the Registry requires payment of an annual fee. Whether or not you participate in the Registry, your participation will also be documented with a report of professional development hours earned, which you may keep for your records.

Instructional level

Unless otherwise noted, all Schools Conference sessions are at the intermediate level and assume general familiarity with the concepts, terminology, literature, and professional practice of the topic.
