Council of Academic Programs in Communication Sciences and Disorders

The Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA) is an organization that accredits educational programs in communication sciences and disorders. It ensures these programs meet high standards for preparing future audiologists and speech-language pathologists. Accreditation by the CAA signifies that a program provides quality education, proper training, and the necessary skills for students to succeed professionally. This process helps maintain consistent and ethical standards across programs, ultimately ensuring that graduates are well-equipped to serve individuals with hearing, speech, and language challenges.
