Help is available to pay for your CDA Assessment Fee through the PA Keys 

 The CDA ASSESSMENT FEE VOUCHER PROGRAM supplies payment for the CDA Assessment Fee that is required to complete the CDA Assessment process. The full CDA Assessment Fee of $425 is paid directly to the Council for Professional Recognition. This program does not reimburse individuals. 

  
The Voucher Program for the CDA Assessment Fee is a two-step process.  The first step is to apply for a voucher – the application form can be found below. Applications are then reviewed and are either approved or denied.  Individuals whose applications are approved receive a voucher in the mail, which they must send to the Council for Professional Recognition in Washington, DC, along with the CDA Application. The Council is then paid directly by the PA Key.
