State rules that name this topic

These state rules name the topic this course teaches. Two things to check before you rely on it: this course is self-paced and asynchronous, so it cannot be used where a rule requires live or synchronous training, and it is not yet CE-approved for any license. Each requirement guide shows the current rule, the hours required, and the source.

How it works

This is a self-paced, asynchronous course (home study), not a live webinar or scheduled class. Reading with optional audio, case material worked in full, and short knowledge checks along the way. The course ends with a final exam (60 questions, retake allowed) and a course evaluation. On release, the certificate of completion issues immediately and stays downloadable from your private course link.

Common questions

Is this the initial 40-hour supervisor training?
No. This is the recurring renewal course for people already supervising: ethics, documentation, evaluation, gatekeeping, and telesupervision.
Does it include a supervision agreement?
Yes: an agreement framework, documentation templates you adapt, and a remediation walkthrough for the conversation everyone dreads.
Which states is it mapped to?
Recurring supervisor CE rules like the Texas 6-hour requirement, with California and other state callouts. The eligibility line states exact coverage.

Eligibility. This course is self-paced and asynchronous, so it does not satisfy any requirement for live or synchronous training. CE credit approvals for this course are in progress with our accreditation partners. Until an approval is confirmed for your license type and state, treat this course as professional development. This page will list the exact approvals the course carries; we do not claim approvals we do not have.

Authorship. This course was built to a specification written by licensed clinicians, with generative AI composing the first draft of the instruction, cases and assessments, and it was then reviewed by our editorial board before release. We disclose the AI drafting because you deserve to know how the material was made, and because a course you rely on professionally should never hide its method.

Refunds. Full refund within 30 days if you have not yet passed the final exam.

Crisis resources. If you or someone you know is in crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline) in the US. Our courses train professionals and are not a crisis service.
