LMHC Continuing Education Guidelines | Retroactive Approval

LMHC CONTINUING EDUCATION GUIDELINES

The Massachusetts Mental Health Counselors Association (MaMHCA), in collaboration with the Massachusetts Continuing Education Approval Program (MCEAP), has established comprehensive Guidelines for Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs) regarding appropriate Continuing Education (CE). These guidelines have been formally approved by the Board of Registration of Allied Mental Health and Human Services Professions.

Most CE providers in Massachusetts have their offerings pre-approved by MaMHCA, a designation that is reflected both in their marketing materials and on CE certificates. As the officially recognized entity authorized by the Board of Registration of Allied Mental Health and Human Services Professions, MaMHCA oversees the approval of CE activities for LMHCs throughout the Commonwealth, ensuring high-quality, relevant, and professional continuing education opportunities.

RETROACTIVE APPROVAL

When an LMHC attends a CE event that has not been previously approved by MaMHCA, or NBCC, as required by the Allied Board of Mental Health and Human Service Professions, approval may be obtained retroactively by meeting the criteria for approval outlined in the MaMHCA LMHC Consumer Guidelines and the CMR 262 Regulations for LMHCs). With Retroactive Approval, the CEs can be applied to the CE requirement to renew a license.

Once you download the LMHC Continuing Education guidelines, which will open in a download window on your device, please fill out the online “Retroactive Certification Form” and submit it to MaMHCA with the appropriate fees (there is a charge for processing and review of the application).
In a license renewal year, there is an increased processing fee after October 15
