Before you count a course
ASHA CEU eligibility is what the provider listed when we checked. Your state board sets its own rules, so check there before you count a course toward a license.
ableU courses are free, but ableU only reports them to ASHA for you if you pay ASHA's CE Registry fee. Otherwise keep the certificate and report it yourself.
