CPD News
Courses which have not been accredited
Structured points for the period 2006 – 2008 will not be awarded for courses that have not been submitted for accreditation by the 31.3.08. These courses cannot count towards your structured points CPD requirement but can be included as unstructured points.
AAA CEU points
The HAC recognises American Academy of Audiology (AAA) CEU points. AAA accredit many courses through Audiology Online (www.audiologyonline.com). If you attend an AAA approved course (and receive their Official Transcript of Continuing Education) or carry out on-line learning with Audiology OnLine and successfully complete the online test then this can count towards your CPD. If you attend an AAA course or complete one online and AAA awards 0.1 CEU points, this equals 1 HAC structured point. Please retain the AAA Certificate.
