An AudiologyOnline guide for members licensed in California
We recognize that depending on what kind of California license you hold, your continuing education requirements vary. We hope this guide will help you effectively search our continuing education courses and find the courses you need so you can get the most out of your membership!
Regardless of what type of license you hold, we encourage you to check AudiologyOnline frequently to find board-approved live webinars. The board limits the number of hours you can earn through self-study (ie, recorded webinars, audio courses, text courses) but does not limit how many hours you can earn through live webinars. A limited number of live webinars are available at any given time, so we suggest searching for courses and earning CEUs throughout the year. It is our goal to ensure that over the course of the year, there will be opportunities for you to earn all the hours you need on AudiologyOnline.

Dispensing audiologists
How can I find relevant courses for my license renewal on AudiologyOnline?
AudiologyOnline is approved by the California SLPAHADB as a professional development provider. The board does not approve individual courses for audiologists; it is the responsibility of the licensee to determine whether the content and learning outcomes of a course are relevant to the practice of audiology.
To find courses that are likely to meet your needs, check for courses labeled "California SLPAB."
Note that the licensing board requires a certain number of the required hours to be relevant to hearing aid dispensing. When searching for these courses, it is up to you as the learner to determine whether the content of any given course will qualify. Also, the licensing board limits the number of hours that can be earned in "indirect client care" or "related topics." It is your responsibility to determine whether specific course content falls into that category. If you need further guidance, refer to the board rules or reach out to the board directly for further clarification.
