Online CEU Courses For MFT License Holders Make It Easier For Everyone

By Marissa Velazquez


MFT license holders can choose from a plethora of websites to get online CEU courses for MFT license maintenance. These Continuing Educations Units must be taken by practitioners in most states to extend their licenses. Drug abuse and addiction counselors, social workers and other therapists, nurses and nurse's aids all need to do this work. They can log into any of these sites and do the work and sign off.

For starters, ensure that the site has the requirements matching the license for an MFT. Therapists and other health care workers need to be sure that the classes taken qualify for the state in which they are licensed. On the degree and the state and CEUs and the sites will appear in the results. Be careful of sites that offer too much. They appear to have everything, but dig deep to make sure the relevant class is available.

Review the topics that are available. Many sites serve many needs, so they may have everything from human resources to psych techs. They can have a dizzying array of options. In counseling, there will be classes that address issues around sexuality, gender identity, sex and society and sexual healing. There can be addiction counseling as well as issues in addiction and therapy. Partner and elder abuse, violence in the home and further topics can be had.

Once a site has been chosen, take a look at the test. It is usually free so it can be used as a study guide. That way, MFTs can study directly from the test. What costs money is the actual reading. At the very least, a full outline of the course will be available.

The process has a clear and direct set of requirements. If a therapist wants on CEU (Continuing Education Unit), he or she will have to take a one hour class or watch a one hour video. Otherwise, the practitioner must read a minimum of 4,000 if not 5,000 words. That is the same as reading 30 pages of a textbook or 4 pages of published journal.

Since this process occurs on the web, the process couldn't be simpler. Carve a few hours out for the whole process and find the appropriate site. Research that the topics that need to be covered are there. All the reading necessary will be available on the site itself. The passing score is generally seventy to seventy-five percent.

At this time, it is good to mention that if there is a time crunch, look over the test in advance. Use it to do a cursory search of the web and find general information about the topic to familiarize with the topic. After the hours for a full review become available, then log into the website, using the test as a study guide, and go through the literature. While good prep for most therapists, these classes are usually have little new material to cover.

Online CEU courses for MFT license holders is the best way to go. No more plane tickets or travel to some remote hotel only to sit in one or two of a collection of irrelevant classes. In the therapist's private time, at home, even in their pajamas, CEU classes can be had over the internet, completed and off the to do list. It's so much easier now.
