Online Training Access Instructions and Continuing Education Credits

AS OF APRIL 10, 2024
Your high-quality, self-paced online training in evidence-based behavioral health practices remains the same, but your online Learning Portal has a new look, login process, and easier navigation! Similar to online shopping, you can now view all courses from a Catalog, add desired courses to your “Cart”, and “Check out” (for free of course!). Your desired courses will then appear on your personalized “Dashboard” where you can start learning and view your progress, certificates of completion, and full transcript. All courses and CE/CME credits remain FREE via this Learning Portal!

Existing Learners – Follow the instructions emailed to you from BHClearinghouse@umassmed.edu on April 10, 2024 and/or refer to the below “Existing Learners” instructions to access the new Learning Portal and continue learning.

New Learners – Follow the “New Learners” instructions below to create your Learning Portal account and begin learning!
