Why MFT Online Ceus Are Better Alternative

By Leticia Jensen


It is often important that all social workers complete the continuing educational units (CEUs) even with bachelors and masters degrees in order to be fully accredited. This has nothing to do with all the clinical supervision and intense exams that include the written and oral tests that you have to pass before being a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). Other than for your on benefits, there are several other continuing education units that are imposed by different states as a condition for license renewal. With the emergence of internet, there are several MFT online CEUs which come with several advantages over the traditional option.

Initially, you had very few options in attempt to fulfill the requirements of virtually every state in regards to license renewal. It means spending hours in college or a university of your choice. This comes with huge financial expenses in traveling and paying for the actual topics. With internet, this is no longer the case.

The online option of pursuing the continuing education units is relatively new and as such, most states do not have specifications in regards to which of the courses must be completed in person and which one can be done through the internet. In most cases however, the certificates are accepted in whichever option that you may proceed with as long as you are able to meet specified hours and complete the relevant courses.

One of the most common internet tools making this possible is teleconferencing/video conferencing. Through this technology, it is possible to achieve so much with highly reduced costs and time. There is no need of traveling to conduct a successful meeting, in the same manner, those enrolled in courses can meet their instructors, engage in discussion with other others and access notes without having to move an inch.

The online CEU providers of course vary in terms of approvals, pricing, format and their level of customer service. In the process of selecting your provider for continuing education, these are just a few of the factors you need to consider.

In general however, these courses are not expensive. With an online option, you can earn your credit with a very low budget with some courses being prices below $10 per unit. Once you select the topic of your choice based the license requirements and your area of specialization, you simply make pay and start counting your hours.

The issue of cost is also of great considerations. Other than saving on expenses related to traveling, the internet versions tends to be far much cheaper as compared to the in person alternatives. You can access a number of relevant courses at a budget of as low as $10 and still print an acceptable certificate soon after completion.

The licensed marriage and family therapists have several options when it comes to completing the continuing education units. There are several factors to consider before settling on a particular topics, in the same manner, the issue of price, relevance, approval and even the customer service must be considered before deciding to enroll in any online course.
