Need a certificate?
Note to court-ordered parents requiring certification:
Please check with the deciding authority about its requirements before registering for an Active Parenting Today Online Group.

The Active Parenting Today Online Groups program does not automatically provide written certification of your completion of the course. A certificate can be provided upon verification of eligibility from your group leader to us.

Note: Some families require more help than a parenting education class can provide. Active Parenting Publishers does not guarantee changes in children as a result of attending parenting classes. Our programs are educational in nature, not therapeutic. Throughout the program, parents are taught that change occurs when they (the parents) work to make the changes. If problems persist, please don't give up; seek the help of a social services or mental health professional.
