    - Definition taken from the American Music Therapy Association

  • CMTEs are Continuing Music Therapy Education credits. Board-certified music therapists require 100 credits every 5-year recertification cycle. 3 of these credits must be ethics credits.

  • This course is right for you if you are a board-certified music therapist that needs CMTEs and wants fresh chords that are easily attainable and can be incorporated into your MT sessions!

  • If you are a music therapy student today (including a music therapy intern), you cannot retroactively obtain CMTEs once you become board-certified. Take the course as a MT-BC to earn CMTEs.
