WE ARE AN APPROVED NBCC CE PROVIDER (ACEP #6338)

CEU By Net has been approved by NBCC as an Approved Continuing Education Provider, ACEP No. 6338. Programs that do not qualify for NBCC credit will always be clearly identified - although at the current time, all courses on our site do qualify for NBCC Credit. CEU By Net is solely responsible for all aspects of the programs.    

The number of NBCC Credit Hours awarded for each course we offer is clearly stated in the Course Catalog and on the Course Certificate. 

NOTE:  Effective May 1, 2015, the new NBCC criterion for determination of Credit Hours is 6,000 words per NBCC Credit Hour, instead of the historically required 4,000 words per NBCC Credit Hour. 

• The NBCC Hours of credit are clearly stated in the catalog for each course, and on the course certificate, based upon 6,000 words per NBCC Hour.

•  The new NBCC policy does_affect those of you who need NBCC Credit Hours to complete your CE requirements, when you complete a course on May 1, 2015 or thereafter.

• However, the new NBCC criterion of 6,000 words per credit hour has_not been adopted by all boards for all licenses and certifications throughout the country.  

• The new NBCC policy will not change the number of Credit Hours which are earned on this website by professionals whose licensure or certification boards do not utilize a 6,000-word per credit hour criterion.  We will continue to award credit based upon 4,000 words per credit hour, for such professionals.   

• Therefore, you will typically see two (2) different amounts of credit earned per course: The NBCC Hours, and the non-NBCC Hours.

We are an online-only website.

Our courses are offered ONLY online (Interactive Distance Learning). CEU By Net is NOT a 'Traditional Home Study' Provider, and thus we are prohibited from mailing out study materials or quiz materials.  All courses must be accessed online, and all quizzes must be taken online.

• CEU By Net's online addiction and mental health CE courses are accepted by almost every state for multiple  behavioral health licenses, based upon one or more of our CE Certifications: 

NBCC, EACC-EAPA, TCBAP-TAAP, and our Approved CE Provider status for multiple state boards for Social Workers, MFTs, and Professional Counselors.  The majority of State Social Work Licensure Boards accept our CEUs.  

Rehabilitation Counselors, LEPs and some other psychologists also earn credits on our website.  The international EACC certifies our courses for CEAPs.  

We are a licensed CE provider for TCBAP-TAAP (an IC&RC Member Board and NAADAC-approved CE Provider).  Our status as a CE provider for an IC&RC Member Board qualifies us as an acceptable CE Provider for US Military substance abuse counselors and for DOT SAPs.

UNIQUE COURSES YOU WON'T FIND ANYWHERE ELSE!

Tired of seeing the same courses on every site you visit?  Well, then, try this site.  On this site you can get AOD and Mental Health CEUs for counselors and social workers with courses that are PRACTICAL and RELEVANT - and several that are entirely UNIQUE.  Examples of unique courses that we offer, developed and copyrighted by CEU By Net:  

• Ethics, When Insurance Is Paying the Bill (It's 'Ethics' with a decidedly different slant! A 3 hour course and a 4 hour course) 

• Creative, skills-based Treatment of Acute Cognitive and Behavioral Dysfunction in the Aging Adult 

• Assessment and Diagnosis of Child and Adolescent Dual Diagnosis, with an emphasis upon safeguarding your professional credibility 

• Documentation in Client Records - the 'new' rules about what to write and not write in that client's chart!

• How to Change Up What We Do in Our Programs and Practices Under Managed Care - yes, it has truly arrived! How to survive it?

Our Continuing Education courses address contemporary mental health and addiction issues and are applicable to a broad range of treatment providers.

For example, our 'Quiz Only' Course 5J,  Suicide Risk and Prevention for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Youth, is FREE TO READ and print, and earns 5 credit hours (5 Clock Hours of CE and PDH credit).

The course is appropriate for Mental Health and AOD Counselors and Therapists, Social Workers, EAP Providers, mental health nurses, community workers, some Psychologists, some School Counselors including California LEPs, and all individuals who serve adolescents and young adults - whether as clients or students or community members.

Important: The authors of this well researched and documented continuing education publication (5J) are clear that "because any young person may be LGBT, we must assume that clients or students could be any sexual orientation or gender identity, and respond accordingly".

Take a quick look at the online quiz for this course.

Continuing Education Course 5J assesses the major 'risk factors' which can contribute to suicide of LGBT (a.k.a. GLBT) adolescents and young adults - including the internet, family and friend's history of suicide, harassment at school, rejection by family members, "coming out" to family members at an early age, etc. - and then provides specific recommendations through model programs, for ACTION to reduce the risk of suicide. The strategies are designed to be implemented with LGBT youth in schools, communities, screening programs, crisis lines, practices and gatekeeping clinics.

SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN MANAGED CARE

[Go directly to the Managed Care Catalog.]

Is Behavioral Health MANAGED CARE just about money and business? NO.

YES - it certainly does, as those of you who are already dealing with it know only too well. We've got some GREAT Managed Care survive-and-thrive stuff for you!

Want to know the inside nitty gritty about MANAGED CARE - including the how-to and the why-this? And it helps to know how MCOs think.

It's no-holds-barred stuff, telling it like it really is, in a way that will likely surprise you. Example: Our CE MiniCourse 2B, 'They're Coming To Audit WHEN?' Or check out some of our Managed Care topics here.

And what to do about those unpaid or denied insurance claims? Was this due to failure to document effectively? Failure to demonstrate Medical Necessity? Their error? Or one of those 'duh' errors on our part? Find out all the reasons why claims are denied - here on this site.

Q: What States and Licenses Accept Our Continuing Education Courses and CEU Certificates?

A: Our Mental Health Continuing Education Courses and CEUs or PDHs are accepted by almost every state for most mental health and AOD licenses.

Q: But, What If CEU By Net Is Not Pre-Approved for Continuing Education In My State?

A:  We are a Certified Continuing Education Provider for National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC), the international EACC, and multiple State Boards, including four Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB) member states. Based upon these certifications, our AOD and Mental Health Continuing Education Courses and CEUs or PDHs are accepted in almost every state, for most mental health and substance abuse counselor licenses.

Examples: We offer online AOD and Mental Health CEUs for Counselors and Social Workers with varied licenses:  LPC, LMHC, LGPC, LMFT, MFT, APC, LPCP, LCPC, LMHP, LPCMH, LCSW, LAMSW, LISW, LSW, CMSW, CSW, PCMSW, APSW, AADC, CCDS, CCS, LCDC, and for most other Counselors' and Social Workers' licenses. For a more complete list of licenses, follow this link.

IF you are an LPC, Social Worker, LMFT, MFT, or other mental health or AOD professional, are you concerned about how the new Health Care Reform will affect how you treat your patients and clients? Not sure how to react to Managed Care from a clinical perspective? Wanting to know in advance where the 'potholes' are located? Then grab a seat and get a closeup view of what to expect and how to cope with it. We have twelve courses in our Managed Care Catalog which deal with this below.

- What, exactly, is a 'Capitation Contract'?

- How will the MCOs determine 'Medical Necessity' of treatment for your client, and how do you get approval for what he or she really needs?

- How does Care Management really work, from a clinical and medical perspective? Like, what about the ETHICS of how they work, and how does that impact us, the providers?

- And what do we need to place in clients' records to support this? How to do 'fool proof' clinical documentation in those treatment records? Learn which types of Provider Agreements or 'contract add-ons' are 'acceptable risk' and which ones have 'Don't even think about it!' written all over them! What are some good treatment program options to suggest to your insurance company?

- How to collect on those unpaid claims?
