How To Begin

After each conference, your attendance hours are posted to your record of training and updated as you continue to attend the LIAA programs.  After you earn the 100 education points through the LIAA workshops and meet the 50 experience points, you may submit your certification application and processing fee. You will receive official recognition of achieving the CAA status.  Once certified, you would be required to earn 30 hours* of continuing education over a three-year period by attending future LIAA programs.

* At least 20 of the 30 hours required for recertification should be earned through the LIAA program.
