Challenges with Online/Webinars:

Scheduling: Must track live session times or access periods for recorded sessions.

Cert Acceptance: Must confirm each course’s CEU validity with your certifying agency.

Completion Certificates: Often need to chase each instructor or platform for separate certs.

Topic Gaps: Siloed offerings may leave advanced or niche topics uncovered.

Time & Convenience Factors in “Siloed” Continuing Education

Finding Individual Courses:
Scouring multiple sites, professional boards, or event listings to piece together required CEUs.
Hours spent verifying the accreditation status (is it recognized by my licensing board?).

Scheduling Conflicts:
Live events or in-person workshops often clash with client appointments, personal responsibilities, or travel constraints.
Potential for missed sessions and partial CEU credit if personal emergencies arise.

Missed Work & Travel:
In-person classes can necessitate missing entire workdays, plus extra commuting or lodging costs.
Online live webinars at set times can still conflict with daily client schedules.

Certification Uncertainty:
Each training may require separate forms or proofs of attendance.
Maintaining a paper trail of multiple certificates to submit can be cumbersome.

Cost Accumulation:
Paying $500 here, $700 there, plus travel or lodging, quickly exceeds monthly membership expenses.
Niche topics (like advanced Intervention, Family-Focused MI, or multi-day intensives) can individually cost $1,000+.

Cost-Effectiveness of a Monthly Membership:

Credable Learning (Approx. $65–$150/month for Beginner or Experienced, more for Professional):

Yearly Spend (Beginner/Experienced): $780–$1,800
Compares favorably to multiple 2-day in-person workshops (easily $2,000+ total with travel).
Continuous Access: No time lost finding or scheduling separate courses.
CEU Alignment: Ongoing resources and documentation track your CEUs in one place.
Convenience & Consistency: Access recordings or live events at your convenience; new modules monthly.
Potential Savings & Added Value:
Skipping 2–3 in-person trainings could save $2,000–$3,000 annually.

Consolidated mentorship and advanced modules remove the need to purchase separate advanced classes at $400–$800 each.

Comparison Snapshot:

In-Person Traditional: $1,200–$2,000 per multi-day workshop (travel included), 16–24 CEUs each time.
One-Off Webinars: $30–$150 each, often <5 CEUs, plus time verifying acceptance for each.

Credable Membership:
Monthly (Beginner/Experienced/Professional) cost with no extra travel or time off.
Ongoing CEU opportunities plus mentorship, interactive content, post-intervention planning resources, etc.

Key Takeaways:

Higher Costs for Siloed Services: Scattered approach = multiple fees, scheduling conflicts, and verifying each course’s CEU status.
Time & Administrative Burden: Collecting separate certificates, ensuring they match your board’s guidelines, and juggling travel or missed workdays can be exhausting.
Membership Advantage: Credable’s monthly model is cheaper over time when factoring in travel, lodging, lost wages, or repeated single-course registrations: Access to a steady stream of new content, advanced topics, and ongoing mentorship or group Q&As, all in one place.

By consolidating training topics (Intervention, Motivational Interviewing, Ethics, Treatment Culture, etc.) into a single membership, Credable Learning drastically reduces your costs, scheduling headaches, and the risk of incomplete CEUs.

Will my CEU's cover my licensure requirements?

Yes, Credable Learning is an approved educator for NAADAC, NASW, and the Pennsylvania Certification Board.

This means:


  • NAADAC: Our modules align with national standards for addiction-focused professionals.
  • NASW: Social work practitioners can generally apply earned CEUs toward licensing obligations.
  • Pennsylvania Certification Board (PCB): Our courses are recognized for certification or recertification requirements in Pennsylvania.


We provide clear documentation of CEUs after each completed course or learning segment so you can submit them confidently to your licensing agency.

(Always confirm exact credit acceptance with your specific board, as requirements can vary by state/province.)



What can you offer that I cannot get at other online schools?

Credable Learning stands out by combining:

  1. Tiered, Progressive Pathways: Instead of all-at-once content dumps or one-off workshops, we offer Beginner, Experienced, and Professional tiers that grow with your skill level.
  2. Continuous Support & Mentorship: Monthly Q&A sessions, direct consultations, and ongoing mentorship—instead of paying separately for additional guidance or advanced content.
  3. Family-Focused & Professional-Ready: Our courses help both families seeking practical solutions and professionals needing certification or recertification.
  4. Practical, Interactive Learning: Role-plays, reflection exercises, post-intervention planning guides, and advanced case studies to ensure real-world applicability beyond theoretical lectures.
  5. One Stop for CEUs: No more siloed or scattered course hunting. We provide comprehensive coverage of essential topics—Motivational Interviewing, Ethics, Intervention basics, and more—recognized by major credentialing agencies.


In short, we offer long-term membership benefits at each tier, bridging the gap between quick one-time trainings and rigid traditional courses. This approach ensures you continuously build expertise, save time and money, and stay connected to a supportive professional community.
