Sixteen states have their own page so far. For the rest, the picker takes you to all courses. Check with your state board before you count a course.
Details
Of the 20, at least 6 and at most 15 must come from approved programs such as ASHA courses. The rest can come from other listed activities, such as journal reading (up to 5).
You can earn at most 12 credits in any 24 hours.
Implicit bias training is separate. You need 1 hour for each year of your license cycle, every renewal.
Human trafficking training is a one-time requirement that you certify when you renew.
You don't submit proof at renewal, but keep it for four years in case of an audit. LARA treats 0.1 ASHA CEU as 1 CPD credit.
Michigan accepts courses from ASHA-approved providers, so the free courses below can count, within the limits above.

About ableU rows. Free to take. If you want ableU to report it to ASHA for you, ASHA charges a Registry fee. You can skip that. Keep your certificate and report the hours yourself.
ASHA is separate
Your license and your ASHA CCC have separate rules. ASHA wants 30 hours every 3 years. Here's how ASHA maintenance works.
