Continuing Education Credits for PCBH Short Courses

CIPC works with a variety of accrediting bodies to provide credits for a broad array of licenses, reflective of the integrated team methods we support and teach.  State licensing boards often vary in what credits they will accept, if your licensure does not seem to be covered or if you have questions, we recommend that you contact your state's board. 

Please note that all requirements must be completed by the end of the course, otherwise we will be unable to submit your transcript for Continuing Education credits. Processing and delivery time can take 6-8 weeks from the last day of the course.

All CE certificates will be emailed to participants.

The Center for Integrated Primary Care has been approved by NBCC as an Approved Continuing Education Provider (ACEP No. 6842). Programs that do not qualify for NBCC credit are clearly identified. the Center for Integrated Primary Care is solely responsible for all aspects of the programs.

Note: Each profession has their own continuing education approval requirements depending on the state in which the professional is licensed. To the best of our knowledge, all 50 states accept NBCC credit for most licensed counseling and therapy professions.  We recommend double checking with your particular state licensure board.
