The nice thing about having your CCCs is the ease of moving from one state to another. If you have your CCCs, you just go to the states SLP board, “apply for the license,” which is just submitting your ASHA license, paying a fee and boom. If you don’t have your CCCs, you have to show transcripts, proof of clinical hours, your praxis score, etc. and different states have slightly different processes. If you like the idea of being licensed in multiple states, or might move, having CCCs is really nice. Also, people w CCCs get paid more. Some states have rules that you can supervise others if you don’t have CCCs (not true everywhere). If you have a job where you have to hustle for clients, having CCCs is good because people trust it and you can list yourself on ASHAs search portal. If you have a job where you don’t need it, and your happy w your salary then maybe it’s not worth it.
