Where Do I Access My Counselor Board’s CE Provider Requirements? – 2nd Question
In the article I wrote earlier I dealt with, “Where do I find the continuing education requirements for my license?”, in relation to licensed counselors. This article will address the question, “Where can I locate my state board’s approved provider criteria?”, also pertaining to those licensed as counselors. In answering this question you will be able to determine where to go to fulfill your CE requirements. The first step, again, is finding out what governing board expects of you (the licensee), the next piece of the puzzle is what does your board require from the providers of the CE courses.
The criteria to become an approved CE provider will differ from state to state. It is crucial to understand who your state board considers to be an approved CE provider. Before showing where this information is found, let’s consider the three variations of what is considered an acceptable CE provider.
There are some states where the board requires the CE provider to apply for approval from them specifically. State boards that require this will then issue an individually assigned provider number to those they have approved. As an example, if you are a licensed counselor in Ohio, you can only take CE courses from a provider approved by The Counselor, Social Worker and Marriage and Family Therapist Board of Ohio, and they must have their own RCX#. If your state falls into this category, look for the unique provider number issued by your state board with each CE provider you research.
There are other counselor boards that will accept CE from providers with certain national board approvals. For example, if the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC) grants approval to a provider than a Professional Counselor in Minnesota may use them to earn their continuing education. Any provider who receives approval from a national board, like the NBCC, can offer CE to licensees in states that accepts this national approval in lieu of their own state approval.
A third variant to this are those state boards that accept approval from other state boards that govern the same profession. To illustrate, in Colorado, a licensed counselor is able to obtain CE from a provider approved by the California Board of Behavioral Sciences (CA BBS), given that the CA BBS regulates LPCCs. Now you have an understanding of what the states may accept regarding provider approvals, yet, where do you go to find out what your state board allows?
Your state board’s official website is a great place to begin. Look around their home page for a link that will take you to a document on their board’s rules, regulations, laws, statutes, etc. In this document you will want to go to the section for continuing education. Within this section will be a description on what the board views as acceptable venues for acquiring your CE. For Pennsylvania counselors, you will need to find the section titled “Pre-approved providers of continuing education courses and programs for professional counselors”. This section will help you determine if your state board accepts CE from providers who have been approved by a different state, been approved by a national board, or if they have to be approved by them.
Once you have this knowledge you can begin your next quest of finding the best provider of continuing education. This information will make things easier going forward. If the online CE provider you are researching does not have this information readily available on their website, ask for it. If not there, move on. The next question to be answered will be, “How much continuing education can I earn online?”, stay tuned.
