What is the time commitment and cost for training and certifying staff?

The NYUCI training and certification program is conducted through an innovative online program. Counselors spend approximately 20 to 25 hours to complete, with a cost of $2499.95 per person. This cost includes the NYUCI online training, access to the NYUCI certification exam (100 questions with an 80% threshold), online training to deliver the NYUCI via online videoconferencing, and a listing on our national referral directory (free for the first year).
