Like most licensed professionals, speech-language pathologists (SLPs) must complete continuing education hours to renew their licenses (download continuing education tracker form). This is unsurprising, because speech pathologists must always keep on track of the latest trends. For instance, sometimes there are new techniques or therapeutics available.

In New Jersey, you have to renew your license every two years. To do this, you need 20 credit hours. You can fulfill these credit hours many different ways, such as attending seminars and taking classes. A valuable resource is the New Jersey Speech-Language-Hearing Association.
