ACA Continuing Education

The mission of ACA Learning Resources is to provide ACA members the opportunity to develop professionally and receive continuing education credit by taking an Online Program, attending Learning Institutes and/or Education Sessions, or contributing to the profession by being a presenter.

Whether it's for license or certificate renewal, career development, or to increase job opportunities, the need for continuing education is a very real demand every counseling professional faces. But while the benefits of continuing education are obvious, the cost is high: travel expenses; time away from the office and one's practice; and scheduling conflicts with work and personal priorities. ACA provides affordable, quality continuing education courses at your convenience, presented by experts in a variety of subject areas!
