UNM, as an institution of Higher Education, is an approved provider of continuing education for Psychologists.

The New Mexico Board of Social Works Examiners, as of January 2005, no longer accredits /certifies Social Work Continuing Education Credit. They do, however, recognize CEU’s approved of by the National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC) and other specified organizations. As The UNM Department of Psychiatry Departmental Conference Series/Grand Rounds is approved to offer NBCC credit, Social Workers attending and signing the attendance sheet will be able to use the earned CEU’s in meeting their licensing renewal requirements in the State of New Mexico.
