After completing MHPS Core and Supplemental training, you have 1 year to start the initial application through the Texas Certification Board.
Please note that this article is about how long MHPS training is valid, not how long an MHPS certification is valid. For the latter, please see the State Application and Certemy FAQs section.
All peer training (RSPS, MHPS, PSS, CFP) expires 2 years after the date your certificate of completion is issued. If exceed this 2 year period, you will need to take the Core and Supplement training again since curriculum for trainings can be updated or changed.
If you need help determining whether or not your certificate of completion is valid, contact the Texas Certification Board at admin@tcbap.org
