Registration provides access to the CEAP system and visibility to all that intend to complete
the accreditation process. Once a training provider registers, they are listed as “Pending
Review and Approval” in the CEAP Registry and “Find a Training Program Directory”.
There are two registration levels:
- $50 registration fee for individual trainers
- $150 registration fee for corporate training providers (companies or organizations, e.g.
hospitals, non-profit agencies.)
Registered training providers have one year to submit an application for one or more training
programs. To remain in the system for more than one year as “pending” a training provider
must repeat the registration process and pay the registration fee again. Once a training
provider has at least one program accredited by CCHI within the year of registration, they do
not have to pay the registration fee again. Instead, they must pay a specific program annual
renewal fee.

CCHI has six accreditation fee levels for the CEAP. Accreditation fees are calculated per
hour depending on the number of instructional hours of the program. Instructional hours do
not include lunch, other breaks, assessment or administrative comments (e.g. welcome,
overview, conclusion, evaluation, etc.).
Level A |
instructional hour (e.g. an in-service or brown bag lunch) |
$25 |
Level B |
2 – 11 instructional hours program
If the course has 2 instruction
hours, the fee is $42. If the course has 11 hours, the fee is $231.

providers can pay a rush surcharge of $100 to have a program reviewed within 7 business days.
CEAP Accreditation is valid for the following terms regardless of the program's frequency:
-
Two (2) years: Online training modules (including webinars), language-specific training courses
(i.e. not English-only or language-neutral), and academic programs (universities, community colleges,
state-accredited educational institutions),
-
One (1) year: all other training programs and conferences.
To maintain accreditation for subsequent years, programs are required to submit a
renewal fee and a renewal application. The program renewal fee is 80% of the corresponding level A-F fee.
