We are Looking for Peer Reviewers!

Bummer! I can’t attend live.  Will sessions be recorded?

Yes! You can watch conference sessions and keynotes on-demand when you enroll in the conference series at The AAC Academy by AACcessible.  Although the live conference is free to all registered attendees, enrollment  for on-demand access is priced here.  If you choose to enroll for on-demand access, you will receive access to CMH quizzes and certificates and will be able to review handouts and video recordings for the lifetime of The AAC Academy platform (at least one year from your enrollment).  Learn more here.  

Do you offer CEU or CMH for the conference?

Those attendees who are interested in certification maintenance hours (CMH) for conference sessions and/or keynotes must enroll at The AAC Academy by AACcessible to receive quiz and certificate access.  You can attend the live sessions and complete the quizzes for certificates at your own pace or watch sessions on-demand and complete 

quizzes and certificates thereafter.  Quiz and certificate access for CMh will not be provided to those attendees who do not enroll  at The AAC Academy, but you can still watch the sessions live and learn for free!  ASHA CEU’s will not be hosted or provided for these events.  Larn more about the difference between CMH and CEU’s here.
