The standards for certification for audiology and speech-language pathology are established by audiologists and speech-language pathologists, respectively, who are members of ASHA's Council for Clinical Certification in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CFCC) .
The NHS scheme provides benefits to your dependents in the event of your death following retirement. The benefits payable depend on your circumstances at the time of your death and on your service in the scheme.
If there are wholly and partly dependent individuals entitled to benefits, the Commission may: (1) award the death benefits to the wholly dependent people only, or (2) apportion the benefits between the dependents. Death benefits will be paid to one or more of the dependents of a covered worker.
