Continuing Education Credit Providers Information

Continuing Education Credit (CEC) is co-sponsored by the Spiritual Competency Academy (SCA) and the Mindsight Institute.

CECs are available for psychologists and California licensed MFTs, LCSWs, LEPs, LPCCs, Nurses, Chiropractors, and may be applicable for other licenses. Please review the approval and board details below.  It is the responsibility of the participant to determine if their accreditation board will accept the credits offered by the Mindsight Institute. The Mindsight Institute does not confirm the applicability of credit for those with licenses different than those listed here.

American Psychological Association (APA): SCA is approved by the APA to sponsor continuing education for psychologists. SCA maintains responsibility for the programs designated as co-sponsored by the SCA, and their content. For administrative questions about CE credit, contact info@mindsightinstitue.com.

The California Board of Behavioral Sciences accepts CE credits for LCSW, LPCC, LEP, and LMFT license renewal for programs offered by approved sponsors of CE by the American Psychological Association, as listed in Article 8, § 1887.4.1. Board-Recognized Approval Agencies.
