The Child Sexual Abuse Treatment Certificate Program
Treating child sexual abuse victims can be daunting and scary. This certificate program will give you the tools to feel comfortable and confident in handling these cases. To receive a Certificate of Completion, a participant must complete 36 CE credits through the Child Sexual Abuse Treatment Certificate Program. This includes 4 required core knowledge courses and 2 electives that must be taken within a 12 – 24 month period. Core knowledge courses are offered once annually and electives are offered throughout the year. Participants may begin at any time in the program cycle.
