Reporting your hours
The Ohio Counselor, Social Worker and Marriage & Family Therapist Board uses CE Broker. It is the board’s official system. The CSWMFT Board partners with CE Broker for finding courses, reporting completions and tracking compliance; licensees who report everything there are exempt from the CE audit. Confirm keeps your own record and certificates; it does not report to the board for you.
