Level-1 Clinical Specialist Exam

The Essay Exam is not a requirement for Certification. It is offered as an option for those who do not have the funding or time to travel to a TLC training to attend the remaining two required courses for Level-1 Certification. Anyone who has taken the following three prerequisite courses is eligible to take the Essay Exam in order to complete their Level-l Certification: Children of Trauma, Structured Sensory Interventions, and Trauma Debriefing.

This is a comprehensive essay exam that will take anywhere from 4 to 8 hours to complete, depending upon the person. It can be submitted to TLC for credit up to 6 months from date of purchase of the exam. All materials needed to complete the exam can be found online and in articles on our web site. Participants will also use information from the SITCAP book, which they will already have already received from the course, Children of Trauma. Cost of the exam is $175. This exam does not provide CEUs.
