Saving with our CE Points Discount Packages

You can save up to 45% per CE by purchasing our Special CE Points Packages. Purchase 10, 20 or 40 credits at once, the more you buy, the more you save. Points are valid indefinitely and you can use them at your own pace and mix and match any type of CE Course that captures your fancy.
Each package gives you 10, 20 or 40 CE points (1CE point= 1 CE Credit= 1 CE hour) that you can redeem at checkout . You simply need to be logged-in to your account and when you select “add to cart” for the CE course of your choice, our system will automatically deduct the number of points from your account and keep track of how many credits you have left.

Taking your test

Taking your test is very easy. Just log-in to your account which you set up when you made your first order for CE courses. Click on the "CE test" tab and you will see the list of tests you have selected as well as a link to any additional materials you may have to download and study prior to taking the test. Study the material at your own pace and once you are ready, click on the course title and take your test on-line. You need a score of at least 70% to pass (do not worry, if you do not pass the test the first time, you may retake it until you pass for no additional charge).

Printing your Certificate of Completion

Once you have passed your test, you will be able to access and print your Certificate of Completion from your account. Simply go to “CE certificates” tab and select the certificate you want to print. We keep your certificates in your account indefinitely, so you can print them whenever it is convenient to you. You can use the certificate to complete the CE paperwork required by your board.
Psychotherapy.net does not submit any documentation to licensing boards.

Purchasing a CE course for a friend or colleague

You can make a purchase for someone else, but it must be ordered in THEIR name and using their email address. Each order is associated with one email address and password, and that address/password is the user’s access to the online test. You cannot share your online access with another person because the information printed on your Certificate of Completion is connected with your email address.
If you want to purchase CE for someone else, make a separate order and use their email address in the ordering process. That way, they can access their test and receive a correct Certificate of Completion when the time comes.

Ordering a CE course for a video I purchased previously

If you purchase a video and decide later that you want to get CE credits for watching it, you can order the CE course separately on our web site. Go to the video page for the item and scroll down to the bottom of the page. You will see an option in the order box that allows you to purchase the CE course.

Refunds

Psychotherapy.net will provide a 100% refund if you are dissatisfied with the CE products or materials. A request for refund must be made (1) within 60 days of purchase of the CE course, and (2) prior to taking the course post-test. Refunds are not available once you have taken a CE test, whether or not you passed.
