Mandatory Requirements
These hours count toward your 30 CE credit hours, but must cover specific content.
Ethics
The following list of courses include ethics, boundaries, and safety practices. To best meet your ethics requirement, we recommend you select a relevant ethics course preferably with the word ethics in the title.
Child Abuse Recognition and Reporting
We do not offer a course that meets this requirement. Please check the state page: https://www.pa.gov/agencies/dos/resources/professional-licensing-resources/act-31
Suicide
Completion of at least 1 hour of continuing education in suicide prevention is required. If the word "suicide" or a derivative of the word "suicide" is contained in the title of a suicide prevention course/program taken through an approved sponsor, the continuing education earned can be used towards satisfying the suicide prevention continuing education requirement. If the course/program pertains to suicide prevention and the title of the course/program does not contain the word "suicide", the provider of the course/program must indicate on the certification of attendance/completion the number of hours of suicide prevention continuing education earned.
