Confirm Before You Enroll

This course satisfies the basic parenting education requirement — typically described in court orders as a “parenting class,” “parenting seminar,” or “impact of divorce class.”

If your court order uses any of these phrases, this course is likely appropriate. Confirm with your attorney if you are uncertain.

If your court order specifies:

  • A “co-parenting course” or “high-conflict co-parenting program”
  • A course longer than 4 hours or with more than 4 modules
  • A specific topic such as parental alienation or parallel parenting
