Tests are available from MaMHCA via USPS mail. Upon completion of your test with a score of 75% correct answers, you will receive documentation of your CE credit via USPS mail. You have one year upon receipt of your test to receive credit.

CE Credits: MaMHCA is charging only $12.00 per CE credit. This is less than the going rate for most Home Study Programs. Also, please note that the cost is for CEs only and does not include the cost of the book(s).
