What is an ASHA Approved CE Provider?
ASHA Approved CE Providership is for organizations that plan, conduct, evaluate, and continuously improve continuing education courses for professionals in the communication sciences and disorders field, following the standards and requirements established by the ASHA Continuing Education Board (CEB).
