CH-AP is an online self-study program for licensed audiologists, first offered in 2016, that is designed to:
- teach preceptors (clinical educators) how to facilitate an AuD student's transition from novice clinician to competent independent professional;
- create training standards around the vocation of audiology precepting, advancing a pathway for an individual to become recognized as an audiology preceptor; and
- develop a greater pool of trained audiology preceptors to provide critically important opportunities for students to apply classroom learning in authentic clinical settings.
The CH-AP certificate program includes four (4) modules that can be completed in any order to earn 0.8 Tier 1 CEUs (0.2 CEUs for each module). When all four modules are completed within twelve (12) months from initial registration date and licensure is verified, the CH-AP certificate will be awarded.
