Continuing Education (CE) Information
Background
IDHA is pleased to offer the Transformative Mental Health Core Curriculum for Continuing Education (CE) credits.
20.75 CE credits for Psychologists, Social Workers, Counselors, Therapists, Medical Doctors, and Nurses are available for an add-on cost of $100, available starting at a base registration cost of at least $299 for participants enrolling in either the Learning Experience or Self-Paced format.
20 CE credits for New York Peer Specialists are available as a no cost add-on for all price tiers for participants enrolling in either the Learning Experience or Self-Paced format.
Anyone enrolling in the Core Curriculum for CE credits will be required to take a brief post-test upon completion of each module. Upon completion of all modules, a certificate will be issued.
As a training institute that values lived experience as highly as professional training, IDHA recognizes the way that the credentialing system enforces a culture of professionalism and devalues lived experience. At the same time, we believe it is a radical act to offer our training content for CE credits, ensuring that mental health workers and other clinicians can apply transformative mental health knowledge in maintaining a credential.
New York Certified Peer Specialists (NYCPS)
The Transformative Mental Health Core Curriculum has been approved for 20 CECs (Continuing Education Credits) for certified NYCPS by the New York Peer Specialist Certification Board (NYPSCB).
