Program Overview
The Post-Master’s Certificate Respecialization in CFT is a unique certificate that takes into consideration the student’s prior academic and work experience, state requirements and licensure needs, allowing for a minimum of 27 credits up to 30 credits. The program is designed for the working professional who has already earned a clinical graduate degree in a mental health field but seeks specialized training in Couple and Family Therapy. Combining online instruction with optional residency work, the certificate features the same courses as our master’s and doctoral CFT programs. Students work with an advisor to design an individualized plan to meet their specific licensure goals, often allowing certificate students to meet licensure requirements in many states, although state requirements vary. It remains for students to ensure they are eligible for licensing in the specific state(s) in which they intend to practice. This certificate can be completed in a minimum of three semesters to a maximum of ten semesters.
