Effective immediately, all programs seeking ASCH approval for continuing education credits towards membership or certification will need to complete a formal submission to ASCH’s Standards of Training Committee at least three to four weeks prior to the holding of the meeting.  By policy, retroactive approvals are generally no longer provided.

To receive ASCH approval, all component sections, ASCH approved consultants/certified professionals, universities, individuals, etc., must submit an Approval Request Form. Once the program has been approved, a formal approval letter will be sent to the program director which can be shared with participants wishing to use the credit for ASCH.

The Approval Request Form is a Word form, and can be easily completed and submitted electronically as an e-mail attachment. You can download the form by clicking here, or you can contact Emma Leighton directly to request a copy of the form at education@asch.net. If you have any questions, you can reach Emma by phone at (630) 980-4740.  

We recommend that all ASCH members and ASCH certified professionals verify formal program approval with either the program director of the training or with the ASCH Central Office before you register for a training program that you wish to use for membership or renewal of your certification. A list of the ASCH approved programs can be obtained by sending a request to Emma Leighton at education@asch.net.
