HealthSciences provides the only nationally-recognized, evidence/outcomes-based certifications in health coaching, population health and chronic care. Most of our courses are certification-track programs, i.e., professionals who enroll intend to pursue the CCP Health Coach or the Registered Health Coach (RHC) credential. However, any of the certification-track programs such as CCP or the RHC Motivational Interviewing Intensive may be completed for continuing education purposes.
Upon completing the program and all program requirements (including the CCP examination and the proficiency assessment for the RHC MI Intensive), a certificate of completion is provided and CE hours awarded. This certificate may be submitted to state licensing boards or employers for CE documentation or reimbursement. We are also happy to assist individuals or organizations with CE documentation requirements.
However, since our programs are ongoing, certification-track and interdisciplinary (professionals from over 25 fields and specialities have completed CCP or RHC), we no longer pursue CE preappoval, except for more interdisciplinary fields such as case management. Case managers please refer to the information below:
Certified Case Managers (CCMs). This program has been pre-approved by The Commission for Case Manager Certification to provide continuing education credit to CCM board certified case managers. The course is approved for 40 CE contact hour(s). Activity code: W0001279 Approval number: 20134641. To claim these CEs, log into your CE center account at www.ccmcertification.org.
While we would like to pursue preapproval for each of the 25+ professions or disciplines that pursue CC or RHC certification, U.S. certification requirements for health care professionals have grown increasingly complex with few uniform standards. As the Institute of Medicine's Health Professions Education Committee, which included representatives from most of the major professions concluded, these standards and requirements can inadvertantly discourage interdispclinary education.
