CEUs and Certificates of Attendance

To support your professional development goals, AHEAD has arranged Continuing Education Units (CEUs) from the Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification (CRCC) and the Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf (RID).

Additionally, if you maintain certification or licensure from another agency that requires continuing education, AHEAD can document your attendance at the Virtual mini-conference to support your application for independent CEUs from your organization. Instructions for each are below.

CRCC CEUs for 2023 Virtual Mini-Conference

CRCC CEUs have been pre-certified for the virtual mini-conference, only for live sessions. CRCC will not approve CEUs for watching recorded sessions.

Instructions for the Virtual Mini-Conference:

  1. List the sessions you viewed on the Virtual Attendance Sheet (Word Doc).  In addition to the real-time (live) sessions, you may also watch other session recordings later, and add them to this form.
  2. When you have watched all sessions for which you intend to claim CEUs (live or recorded), scan and email your completed Virtual Attendance Sheet and Certification Request to profdev@ahead.org. AHEAD staff will review your form, verify in our online records that you viewed those sessions, and then send you a signed Verification of Completion. 
  3. After receipt, log in to the CRCC website and upload the signed Verification of Completion form to CRCCConnect per their instructions.


If you attend sessions from both virtual and in-person conferences, you must complete each form separately to document your attendance.

You cannot claim credit for both the in-person and the virtual version of the same session.
