Yes. NILD is a professional training and licensing organization. To protect the efficacy of our techniques and ensure that all students worldwide are receiving a consistent and high-quality experience, all therapists MUST maintain a current license from year to year. This applies to Standard Licensure (for intern and full educational therapists) AND PCETs.
}}- What if I let my license lapse or expire?
We are sorry but you are not permitted to practice NILD Educational Therapy or use NILD materials unless you have a current license.
}}- What if I don’t have any students?
Call or email us. We’re certainly willing to assist where possible. You may also want to consider an Affiliate License which will permit you to operate in that gray space while you are trying to get more students.
