All Certificate holders must submit a Certification Maintenance Compliance Form to verify completion of the certification maintenance requirement. The Compliance Form is due on or before December 31 of the year your interval is completed; however, you may submit it any time within your 3-year maintenance interval after you have accumulated the required professional development hours (PDHs).
Submit Online
Once you have completed all 30 PDHs for your current interval, including professional development requirements for specific content areas, you can quickly and easily submit your Compliance Form online.
- Login to the My Account section of the ASHA website.
- Under your account number, there is a section called "Certification and Supervision."
- Select the certification maintenance interval link under that heading—e.g., "2024–2026 Certification Maintenance Overview (Submit your Compliance Form)."
- Note: If you instead see the link "How to Maintain ASHA Certification (Upcoming Interval)," it means that your interval requirements are complete and there is no further action for you to take.
- This link will bring you to a dashboard with an overview of your certification maintenance information. Select the "Submit My Compliance Form" button to start the submission process.
- Complete the Compliance Form by reading the statements, checking "I AGREE," and typing in your electronic signature. Select "Submit your Compliance Form" and then select "Yes, submit to ASHA" when the pop-up prompts you to confirm.
- Once you submit, you will be redirected to a confirmation page that (a) indicates your form has been received and (b) provides the dates of your next maintenance interval. You will also be notified and given additional instructions if you have been chosen for a certification maintenance audit.
There is no need to submit certificates and supporting documents unless you have been selected to participate in the audit.
