CEUs

The exact number of CEUs is determined by each accrediting body. As CEUs are approved, they will be updated below. The conference mobile app—available prior to the event—will include session descriptions and presenter bios.

Pre-registration for sessions is not required. However, you must attend each session in full to be eligible for CEUs.

When registrations open, please register using your first and last name exactly as you would like them to appear on your certificate of attendance. We cannot make name changes after the conference. 

CHIA will apply for CEUs once the program is finalized. The following serves as an indication of the CEU types CHIA has historically applied for and been awarded. 

ATA: In past years the ATA has generally approved CEPs 10, category: A. Category A is for live events only. For category A events that are more than one day, there is a cap of 5 CEP per day, per member, for a total of 10 CEPs per event.

CCHI: CHIA applies for, and is typically awarded, both Continuing Education (CE) and Performance-Based CEUs.

IMIA/NBCMI: CHIA is generally awarded 10 contact hours = 1 IMIA/NBCMI CEUs.

RID-PINRA: CHIA applies for pre-approved for all sessions. Interpreters will be required to send CEUs requests via the PINRA process by working with an RID Approved Sponsor. You may send your CHIA PINRA form to cmp@norcrid.org. NORCRID will advise of the total CEUs earned and if they fall under professional or general studies (RID's classifications) as well as payment. You do not need an activity code or NORCRID's second signature as that will be applied once processed.
