Our state and national mental health board certifications

Aspira Continuing Education’s courses are approved or accepted by many state boards and national boards for mental health professions and licensed social workers. Many states accept the approval of a national board or the board of a different state (such as California Board of Behavioral Sciences) that governs the same professional licensee (ex. A Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Alabama can use our site for their CE requirements because Aspira has approval from the California BBS which governs LSCWs and the Alabama Board of Social Work Examiners accepts this approval).  Below is a list of all the states.  Under each state name is the national or state board that is accepted by that state as the authority for granting approval of our continuing education courses.
