I don't know how many of y'all already knew what to do with the ASHA form Dr. Bender gave us at the end of the year but I sure didn't so I asked! Here's what she said:
"That is your certification and membership application form. You MUST send it in when you are applying for certification which you will not receive until after you finish your CF. You can choose to send it in at the end of your CF (along with your CF paperwork) or you can send it in a little bit before you finish your CF.
If you send in all the paperwork at once, application and CF paperwork, it may take a little bit longer to process your certification (6-8 weeks). Especially if they do not receive a transcript or your NESPA scores. If you send in your application a couple months before (say in January) your certification may not take as long to complete (less than 6 weeks). In the meantime, you will receive notification of any missing documentation for your application and can submit it before you complete your CF process.
Your CF supervisor must continue in a supervisory role until you receive official notice of certification."
However, my other question (that I didn't ask yet, thought maybe one of y'all would know) is do we need to be members of ASHA during our CF year...

The only thing that I've heard about the application form is that if you send it earlier your NSSLHA dues will transfer over. It's complicated... but basically since we renewed in January and aren't students an entire year you won't have to pay the full ASHA fee... something like that!!! I totally forgot about that form Dr. Bender sent us.... I don't even know where it is!!!

I called and asked about the whole NSSLHA membership and ASHA membership. The lady told me that we don't have to renew now because technically we're still members until January. And, we can let just wait until the fall to renew(or whenever we're supposed to) and we'll still get our discount because we were NSSLHA members. The only thing would be that we won't have access to the website and articles. But, do we really need it anyway??? :)
I'm still a little confused...let me know if yall know anything else!
