TalkTools Continuing Education Policy and Process

      

If you wish to earn ASHA CEUs, IT IS THE LEARNER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO FOLLOW THE TALKTOOLS COURSE COMPLETION PROCESS.

Per the compliance terms ASHA requires for all approved Continuing Education (CE) Providers, ASHA will NOT award CEUs to learners who do not follow the process by the deadline listed on this page. ASHA does not allow CE Providers to submit Learner CEUs after this deadline.

ASHA CEUs awarded for workshops are reported to ASHA no later than 30 days after the workshop date (see reporting scheduled below), which means that CEUs will NOT automatically be listed on the learner's registry upon course completion. Learners must allow for TalkTools filing schedule, as well as allowing time for ASHA to process CEUs before CEUs appear on learner's registry (the process can take up to 90 days).
