The Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA), the accrediting body within the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), has approved Cleveland State University's (CSU's) M.A. in Communication Sciences and Disorders online pathway.
In addition to licensure, speech-language pathologists (SLPs) are required to earn a master's degree at an accredited institution. CAA accreditation ensures that graduates receive a quality education, study a standardized set of skills and learn the core knowledge required for independent professional practice.

ASHA established the CAA to operate independently and implement education standards, awarding accreditation for graduate degree programs in audiology and speech-language pathology nationwide.

The CAA is recognized as a credible accrediting agency by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation and the U.S. Department of Education. Via a peer review process, the CAA establishes accreditation standards and seeks continuous quality improvement of the programs it accredits.
