Preferred Education Provider (PEP) Application

BEFORE COMPLETING THIS APPLICATION, PLEASE READ THE PEP GUIDE BY CLICKING HERE.


The ASHE PEP program identifies organizations (e.g. ASHE Chapters and other for-profit and nonprofit organizations) to offer Continuing Education Credits (CECs) for education sessions. These credits can be used towards initial certification and renewal for the Certified Healthcare Facility Manager (CHFM) and Certified Healthcare Constructor (CHC). CECs can also be used to fulfill application requirements for the ASHE Fellow and Senior (FASHE and SASHE) recognition programs.


In addition to the online application, the following documentation (Word document, .pdf, etc.) MUST be attached for EACH education session. Incomplete applications will be returned.


  • Session title
  • Session description
  • Learning objectives (minimum of 3)
  • Faculty/speaker name(s)
  • Faculty/speaker title(s) and organization(s)
  • Timed agenda


PLEASE ALLOW UP TO TEN BUSINESS DAYS TO PROCESS YOUR REQUEST.


Once approved, preferred education providers are responsible for monitoring attendance and providing proof of attendance to all participants. A CEC certificate template will be provided.


If you have questions, please contact us at ASHEeducation@aha.org or 312-422-3800.

For non-ASHE Chapters (e.g. institutions, individuals, or corporations) an annual fee is applied to the first application each year. Once the initial application is approved, an organization can offer CECs until the end of that calendar year.
