Continuing Education in Law & Ethics for Registered Associates

Effective January 1, 2023, the BBS will require registered associates to complete a minimum of three (3) hours of CE on law and ethics during each registered associate's renewal period (annually) regardless of whether they have passed the California Law & Ethics exam. For more information visit the BBS FAQs.  

Telehealth Training 

On or after July 1, 2023, applicants for licensure and current licensees (before their first renewal after January 1, 2023) are required to complete three (3) hours of training or coursework in the provision of mental health services via telehealth. See the BBS FAQs for more information. Check out CAMFT’s workshop, Key Legal and Ethical Issues in Telehealth which will meet this requirement.
