Is Aspira CE approved to provide continuing education units/hours for my license and state?

Aspira CE is approved to provide continuing education units/hours for many licenses and states. Check the map below to determine if Aspira’s courses are approved for your license and state.

Are AspiraCE courses accepted by the CA BBS?

The short answer is YES.  All of AspiraCE courses are accepted by the CA BBS.

The longer answer is the CA BBS is no longer approving CE providers themselves as of the end of 2015.  The CA BBS has deferred the approving process to other Boards and agencies.  The CA BBS will accept courses from CE Providers with approval from any one of the following:

i. National Association of Social Workers (NASW)

ii. Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB)

iii. National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC)

iv. National Association of School Psychologists (NASP)

v. American Psychological Association (APA)

vi. California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists (CAMFT)

vii. California Psychological Association (CPA)

Aspira CE has approval from the NBCC (provider number 6416), as well as the APA.  Therefore, all of AspiraCE courses are accepted by the CA BBS.  Any LMFT or LPCC licensee in CA will have the NBCC provider number printed on their certificate of completion, while all LCSWs will have the APA information printed.  The CA BBS accepts the NBCC provider number and the APA approval as proper authority to offer CE courses to any and all of those licensed and governed by the CA BBS.

Is Aspira CE approved for Psychologists?

Aspira Continuing Education is approved by the American Psychological Association to sponsor continuing education for psychologists. Aspira Continuing Education maintains responsibility for this program and its content.

Does Aspira CE report to CE Broker?

Aspira CE does report all completed hours to CE Broker for those licensed in Florida only.  If you have multiple licenses in more than one state, including Florida, make sure that each time you log out of your account that your Florida license is the one saved in your profile.

Once a month we pull out all courses completed from those licensed in Florida and submit them to CE Broker.  If you have one of your other state license information saved when we create this report, your account will not get captured, and thus your courses not submitted.

For information on how to change your professional license data, please see the question and answer below for the question that reads “If I have more than one license, can I print a certificate for each license for each course?”.  It is in the section titled “Certificate Related Questions”.

Where do I find AspiraCE’s provider numbers?

If you scroll down to the bottom of any page you will see a link in the footer titled “Approvals”.  If you click on that link you will be taken to the page listing all of AspiraCE’s approvals and corresponding provider numbers.  You can also click this link as well: AspiraCE Approvals and CE Provider Numbers

What is the difference between an Online Interactive CE Course and a Home-Study Course?

If you submit a completed course/exam to the CE provider via regular mail, then you have taken a home-study course. If the course/exam is completed and submitted online, then the hours are approved as an online interactive CE course. Many state boards, such as the California Board of Behavioral Services, allow all required continuing education to be earned from online interactive continuing education courses. Check with your respective board to determine the amount of hours/units that are permitted online.

Will the CA BBS allow me to take a course completed in a previous renewal cycle during a subsequent renewal cycle?

A question was asked of us whether the CA BBS would allow a licensee to take the same course from a previous renewal period in a subsequent renewal period.  Here is the reply we received from the BBS:

Per regulations, section 1887.3(f) A licensee may not claim the same course more than once during a single renewal period for hours of continuing education credit. There is no mention of taking the same course during separate renewal cycles.

FAQs: System/Website Related Questions

How does AspiraCE's system work?

AspiraCE is an online CE provider approved by several agencies and boards throughout the United States (see the map below to check if AspiraCE is approved in your state for your license).

AspiraCE courses and exams can be accessed at any time.  This allows potential members the ability to view all content prior to creating an account or purchasing units to make sure that the course of interest meets their needs.

Once determined that AspiraCE offers courses that meets your needs, you will want to create an account.  There is no cost to create an account.  This is required prior to purchasing units or taking any exams.  This way the system will know what to do with the information regarding purchases and exam results.

Once you have created an account you can go to our Pricing page to view all the pricing options to determine what would be the best option for you based on how many courses you need to take and how many hours that equates to.  AspiraCE offers the purchase of units that can be applied to the amount of hours of coursework needed.  You will need one unit for every one hour of coursework you need to take.

So, for example if you need one course for 7 hours, you will need to purchase 7 units.  If you have several courses that total 36 hours, you can either purchase 36 individual units at $6/unit, or purchase the unlimited subscription option that will allow you to use as many units as you want over a 12 month period for one price of $129.99.  This package would cover all 36 hours of coursework.

Once you have created an account and determined what pricing option is best for you, you can start reviewing the course content and then take the corresponding exam.  Once you have passed an exam the system will ask you to complete a course evaluation form.  After completing this form you will be given access to your certificate of completion (providing the units have already been paid for).

Regarding the exams: there is no limit on how many times you can take the exam.  If you bought units before taking the course exam, the system will not deduct any units from your account until you have passed the exam.  If you do not pass the exam, no units get deducted, you will just need to refresh you understanding of the course content and retake the exam.

All completed courses will be kept in your account on your own myCourses page.  You can access all of your earned certificates of completion on this page at any time.  So, if you ever need to produce a hard copy of your certificate of completion (if you are ever audited for example) just log into your account, go to your myCourses page, scroll down to your Course History and click on the Download button under the column titled Certificate for the course in question.  This will pull up your certificate of completion in a PDF document that you will be able to print.

How do I add a license to my profile?

To add your professional designation and license info to your professional profile, follow these steps:

  • Go to your myCourses page
  • Click on the link Edit Account Information near the top of  the  page

  • Type in your license expiration date (or leave blank if you are not licensed yet)
  • Click Save Changes

You can repeat this process if you have more than one license.  Only one license is active at a time.  If you have multiple licenses in your profile you can switch between them by following the instructions in the next FAQ below.

How do I switch between licenses if I have more than one listed in my professional profile?

To switch between multiple licenses in your profile, follow these steps:

  • Go to your myCourses page
  • Click on Edit Account Information near the top of the page
  • Click on the Edit Professional Info button
  • Click on the Select License field at the top

  • Click on Save Changes

I log in and the system keeps logging me out when I navigate to a new page, how do I fix this?

We apologize for this issue if you encounter it.  What we have seen with some members is they log in and then go to the Course Listing page to add courses to their personal sub-list.  Once on the Course Listing page the green tab that protrudes from the upper right edge of the screen no longer reads “MYACCOUNT”, but  instead reads “LOG IN”.

When you encounter this shortly after logging in, just click on the “refresh” button  near the top left corner of your browser.  It usually appears as a circular arrow.  The green tab should read “MYACCOUNT” again.  You can then proceed to add courses to your sub-list on your myCourses page.

If this alone doesn’t help try following these steps below:

  • Shut down your browser
  • Reboot your computer
  • Re-open your browser
  • Go to our website
  • Log in to your account
  • Click on Course Listing
  • Once on the Course Listing page click the refresh button at the top of your browser (typically it is an icon of a circular arrow)

This should restore you back to being logged in and remaining logged in.  If this does not solve your issue, please give us a call a the number listed on the Contact Us page.

What is the process of obtaining a certificate of completion after completing a course through ZynnyMe?

ZynnyMe is a third party company that Aspira CE works with to provide CE credit for courses completed through their website.  ZynnyMe hosts the course content and does all presentation of the material.  ZynnyMe charges for their courses and this cost is separate from any cost incurred with Aspira CE.

Once you have completed the course through ZynnyMe you will come to Aspira CE to take the corresponding exam.   You will need to create an account with Aspira CE prior to completing any exam on our site.  Otherwise, the results will not be save and will not allow for the receiving of the certificate of completion.

Once the account has been created with Aspira CE, you will want to locate the course title of the course completed on ZynnyMe’s site by going to Aspira CE’s course listing page (Click on Course Listing in the main menu on the left of the page).  Once the course title has been located you can click on the button labeled “Exam” under the title and description.

Now that the exam has been passed, you will need to purchase units in order to gain access to the certificate of completion.  You will need 1 unit for every 1 hour of coursework completed.  So, for example, if you completed a course for 3 hours, you will need to purchase 3 units in order to gain access to the certificate of completion.

To do this follow these steps:

  • Go to your myCourses page
  • Click on the Purchase Units button
  • Under the Individual Units options click Add To Cart

  • If you have a coupon code, enter it in the appropriate field and  click on Appy Coupon
  • Proceed to checkout to complete the process to have the units added to your account  (All address fields must be filled in prior to clicking on Place Order)

Once the units have been added to your account and applied to the course completed, you can access the certificate of completion.  To pull up the certificate of completion follow these steps:

  • Go to your myCourses page
  • Scroll down to the Your Course History section
  • Click on the tab “Aspira Courses I’ve Passed”
  • Click on the Download button in the far right column titled Certificate
  • Once the certificate is displayed, click on the print icon to print a copy

If the certificate does not display when you click on the Download button, you will need to find out how your particular device and/or browser stores downloads.  Once you know where your device and/or browser stores downloads you will be able to click on and pull up the certificate.

What's the difference between Individual, Company Admin, and Company Employee account types?

Aspira CE offers three different account types when first creating an account.  Here is the explanation for each type of account:

Individual – This account type is the most common.  This account type is used by those seeking continuing education courses for the renewal of their professional license and who will be purchasing the necessary units themselves.  Do not use the “Company Employee” account type if you are purchasing your own units, use the “Individual” account type.  This account type will allow you to keep track of your purchase history and your course history.  You can purchase units, take exams, and earn & access all certificates of completion.

Company Admin – This account type is for those that have a company that wants to provide continuing education units for their employees.  You would not use the account to complete courses or take exams.  This account type purchases units in bulk and then has the ability to assign any number of units from their company total to any of their connected employees.  Employees are connected to the employer account through the company’s unique username.  The company account has the ability to run a report of all active employees showing the courses they have completed, the date passed, and the amount of units remaining in their employee account.

Company Employee – This account type is to be used by those who have been instructed by their company administrator (who have already created a company account) to create an account with AspiraCE.  This account type does not have the ability to purchase units, due to the fact that the company account purchases the units and then assigns the necessary units to the employee account once created.  This account type can take courses, take exams, and receive certificates of completion.

 

**Please use the Contact Us page for any questions regarding these account types.

What happens if I do not pass an exam?

If you do not pass one of AspiraCE course exams, the system does nothing.  No units get deducted from your account until you pass the exam.  You will just need to review the course content and retake the exam.  There is no limit on how many times you can retake each exam.

What is the process in obtaining exam results and receiving a certificate of completion?

After answering all the questions on the exam you will click on the “Grade My Answers” button at the bottom of the exam. The system will grade the answers and display your exam results immediately after clicking the “Grade My Answers” button. You will will then be taken to the course evaluation.

After taking a CE course (whether reading the PDF document, reading the required book, listening to an audio version, or watching a video) and passing the exam, completing the course evaluation, and purchasing the appropriate number of units, you will have immediate access to your certificate of completion.

The best purchasing option will depend on how many contact hours you need to complete for your license application or renewal. Please view AspiraCE’s Pricing page for details on all your purchasing options.  Your certificate will always available for viewing and printing on our site from your myCourses page at any time after earning it.

How can I register with Aspira CE if I don't have a license yet?

If  you don’t have a license and don’t need to submit your certificate(s) to a state board, you can simply select “No” when asked if you have a license when creating your account.  The system will then remove those fields from your Create an Account page.

If you don’t have a license, but are working towards a license and need to submit your certificate(s) to your state board, then you will still click “Yes” when answering the question “Do you have a license?”.

You can then leave the license number field and the license expiration field blank.  You will need to select the state where you are seeking licensure and you will need to select the profession you are pursuing for licensure.  These two fields are necessary in order to have the correct approving body information printed on your certificate(s) in order to have them accepted by your state board.

I forgot my password, how can I get access to my account?

Click on the Log In pull out tab on the right side of the screen.  Click on “Reset Password”.  You will be asked to enter your email address.  Enter the email that you used when you created your account.  The system will send you a link that will allow you to reset your password.  Once you receive this link, click on the link and the system will allow you to create a new password.  You can then use this new password to log in to your account.

Can I see the results of my exam to know which questions I answered correctly and which ones I answered incorrectly?

Yes.  Immediately after submitting your completed exam, the system will display your results.  There will be a print button as well so that you can print out your results.

How do I delete courses from the myCourses page under the tab "Courses I'm Working On"?

Courses you have added to your myCourses page that are pending under the tab “Courses I’m Working On” will have a check box on the far left.  Check this box for each course you want to remove from this list.  Once at least one box is checked an action button will appear above the list that allows you to delete the selected courses.  Just click on that action button and the courses you checked will be removed from your list.

How do I get a receipt of my purchase?

Our system will automatically send via email a receipt of all transactions. The system sends the receipt to the email listed in your AspiraCE account.

You can also access your purchase history by following these steps:

  • Go to your myCourses page
  • Click on the link View Purchase History near the top of the page
  • Click the View link for any transaction you want to see the details of that transaction

I have completed a course and when I click on the exam button I receive a message "page not found". Where do I access the exam?

On occasion, AspiraCE will discontinue a course or a group of courses due to out-of-date content.  We will provide a several month warning before removing the course.  This warning message will appear on the Course Description page of any course to be discontinued.

If you received a “page not found” message when trying to access an exam, this means that course was discontinued.  The course content may still have been accessible if you added it to your myCourses page in the Courses I’m Working On section prior to it being discontinued.

If you have already read through the content, you can still get credit for this course by passing the exam.  You just need to go to the Contact Us page, send us an email stating you completed a discontinued course and request that the exam be emailed to you.  Please be sure to include the title of the course in your email to us.

We will email you the exam.  Then you can complete the exam and email it back to us with your answers selected.  If you earn a passing score and we verify that you have enough units in your account to cover this course, we will mark the course as passed and paid in your account, and manually deduct the appropriate number of units from your account.  You would then have access to the certificate of completion on your myCourses page under the tab, “Aspira Courses I’ve Passed”.

FAQs: Certificate Related Questions

If after checking your unit total you discover that you do not have enough units in your account to cover the course(s) in question, then simply purchase the appropriate number of units and follow the procedure mentioned in the previous paragraph.

The most common reason that a last name appears twice on the certificate is due to having it typed in both the First Name field (along with one’s first name) and in the Last Name field.  To correct this do the following:

  • Go to your myCourses page
  • Click on the link near the top of the page “Edit Account Information”
  • On your My Account page click on the link “Account Details”
  • On the Account Details page make the appropriate changes to the name fields
  • Click the “Save Changes” button at the bottom of the page
  • Go back to your myCourses page
  • Reprint your certificate(s) of completion

How do I get my certificate to fit and fill the page when printing?

You should print your certificate in landscape (wide) mode. To do so, select landscape mode from the print dialog that appears when you select the Print Certificate button. Consult your computer’s system or printer manual for more information.
