From Fees to Freedom: Changing the Continuing Ed Landscape for SLPs

Dr. Jeanette Benigas and Brooke Richardson, MS, SLP, break down the complexities of continuing education requirements in speech-language pathology, focusing on the costs, challenges, and the need for broader professional development choices with fewer restrictions for clinicians. Brooke, an ASHA CE provider, shares her insights into the rising financial burden of maintaining ASHA Approved CEU status, with fees set to increase to $1125 annually. Together, they explore why ASHA transparency is crucial and discuss how these growing costs affect small CEU providers and clinicians. They discuss the push for state licensing boards to accept all related professional development hours instead, promoting better access to high-quality, affordable education.Want to earn some PDHs or CEUs with a discount?
