Do I Get ASHA Credit?
OnlineCEUs.com is approved by the Continuing Education Board of the American
Speech-Language Hearing Association (ASHA) to provide continuing education
activities in speech-language pathology and audiology. ASHA approval of CE
Provider status does not imply endorsement of course content, specific products,
or clinical procedures. In order to receive ASHA credit you must complete the
course, pass the assessment test with 80% accuracy and fill out the evaluation

How do I know if my state speech pathology board accepts your online courses?
Since we are an ASHA provider, most state speech pathology licensing boards
accept our courses. It is recommended that you contact your state board in
regard to how many self study continuing education units you are allowed because
some have a limit on the amount that you are able to take. You will be able
to print a copy of the CE certificate at the end of each course. It is recommended
that you keep a copy of the certificate to show that you completed the necessary
requirements.
How
long do I have to complete a course?
You may log in and out as many times as you’d like. The courses are designed
to be done at your convenience. The course will be considered completed on
the day you print your certificate. You will have 7 days to complete the course.
Do I need to pass a test?
Yes, you will need to complete the test and the evaluation before receiving
credit for the course. Once you have finished the lessons, you will be presented
with a multiple choice/true false test with 10 or 20 questions. You will need
to receive 80% in order to pass the test. You will be allowed to take the test
again until you receive the passing score of 80% if needed, but you will be
presented with a different set of questions.
Will
I get a certificate to show my licensing board?
Yes. You will be able to print your certificate immediately upon passing the
test with 80% accuracy and completion of the evaluation. Your certificate will
show the title, number of CEUs, date of completion, and certifications of the
provider.
