CE Audit Begins In January
ASHI staff is charged with conducting an audit of Continuing Education (CE) hours every January. A list of 300-400 ACIs and Associates is randomly generated from the ASHI database, including at least one member from each chapter. Members on the list are notified to turn in documentation supporting the CE hours they claimed. Certificates of completion, invoices and certificates of attendance are accepted. If the documentation does not verify the required number of hours, the inspector is placed on administrative suspension until he or she submits the proper documentation. Keep your certificates in one place throughout the year, so you're prepared if audited.
