New NBCC- and NASW-Approved CE Credits
Healthcare professionals can complete more than eight hours of NBCC- and/or NASW-approved* courses covering various mental and behavioral health topics. These courses can count towards required CEs for licensure renewal for social workers and mental/behavioral health counselors in all states that accept NBCC- and NASW-approved credit.
To easily locate NBCC- and NASW-approved courses, simply search for "NBCC" or "NASW" in the course library.

Reassign in Assignment Process - CPR
This feature is for reassigning CPR courses. When you assign a staff member who has already been assigned, a pop-up shows their completion status. You can then choose whether to reassign the course. Notifications also show your remaining credits for course assignments.

Prevent Reassigning Courses
Administrators can now easily reassign courses to multiple users all at once, as well as identify employees who have already been assigned a course recently. For premium courses, such as CPR/BLS, this feature can save you from unnecessary costs and confusion.
This new capability provides administrators with three convenient options:
Reassign all: This option allows you to quickly reassign all eligible users without the need for manual selection.
Select the desired employees from the table: Administrators can still opt to individually select specific employees from the table if needed.
Continue without reassigning: For cases where reassignment is not necessary, administrators can continue with the current assignments without making any changes.
