Can clinical supervisors apply for accreditation?
Yes. If you’re actively working in a clinical or practice-based setting, you are eligible to apply.

I completed UTC self-led courses online but did not receive all of my certificates yet.
Submit screenshots showing course completion. As long as you meet the 120-hour training requirement and have completed UTC 3 and 8, you are still eligible.
If I already have certificates from other trainings, do I still need to complete the UTC self-led courses?
The Commission is currently reviewing this. Equivalent training—especially in fields like social work or psychology that include HIV and ethics—may be considered. Submit documentation showing how your training matches the required content.
Is there an exam for the Child Interventions or Children Series?
Not at this time. Current credential options include Prevention, Treatment Levels 1–4, and Recovery Support. A nursing-focused credential is currently in development.
Will I be disqualified for not completing UTC 1 and 8?
UTC 3 and 8 are currently required for eligibility. However, the Commission may consider equivalent knowledge or training if you submit supporting documentation.
Can the one-mark fail policy be reconsidered?
The 70% pass rate is grounded in psychometric testing to ensure fairness and validity. While it can feel discouraging, it is based on data. That said, the Commission is reviewing exam performance data over the next six months and may consider adjustments.
