Cooperative Offerings provide an opportunity for ArSHA to collaborate with other organizations in offering continuing education units for speech-language pathologists and audiologists in our state.  The following procedures were adopted by the Executive Board of ArSHA on 2/6/18 and are in effect immediately. Please contact arsha@arsha.org for any questions, or to initiate a cooperative CE agreement with ArSHA.

  1. ArSHA will support continuing education opportunities in the State of Arizona only.
  2. Craven Management Associates will act as the Continuing Education Administrator, providing services to process events. The Chair of the Professional Development Committee will act as the Continuing Education Consultant, providing oversight to the cooperative offering.
  3. The ArSHA CE Consultant will follow the policies and procedures outlined by ASHA and found on these pages: http://www.asha.org/ce/for-providers/admin/.
  4. All cooperative offerings will follow the Cooperative Course Policy and Cooperative Course Agreement (Appendix A-B).
  5. For ArSHA to support a Cooperative Offering that is an Independent Study or Study Group, 50% or more of the participants must be members of ArSHA.
