Example printable certificateWill I earn a professional development certificate for completing a module?

For each AFIRM module, you can earn a professional development certificate by completing module requirements (i.e. Pre-assessment, Post-assessment, and Module Evaluation).

Use AFIRM certificates for professional development credits and licensure requirements.

How do I earn continuing education credits? 

After completing the module requirements (i.e. Pre-assessment, Post-assessment, and Module Evaluation), access your My Account  (top right corner of your computer screen) page for links to registering for continuing education credits. 

Note: You may need to review the module and take the post-assessment again if your post-assessment has expired in order to become eligible for CEUs or Type-2 CEs.
