The NASW Learning Center is where members prepare for the ASWB exam, earn and track their CE, and follow the licensure path their own state requires. Sign in with your NASW membership and your pricing, your state, and your renewal record are already there.
Complete study programs and a deep practice-question bank, at member pricing, with need-based scholarships and 0% payment plans.
Member pricing from $159 ›400+ approved courses, on demand and live. Your chapter's courses are free with membership, the rest are member-priced, and wherever a course runs, the completion lands on one CE transcript and your NASW record.
Browse the catalog ›Supervised hours, required coursework, exams, and renewal rules for all 50 states and DC, kept current against the boards.
Find your state ›This is a revenue-share partnership, not just a discount. NASW earns a share of every member purchase, and it flows back to the chapters and national programs that serve social workers.
Chapter earnings are tracked in real time and reported to NASW leadership monthly (see the partner rev-share view).
Full ASWB Bachelors, Masters, and Clinical prep at member pricing, with scholarships and payment plans so cost is never the reason to wait.

412 approved courses across social work, ethics, clinical practice, and cultural competency, on demand and live. Courses produced by NASW and your chapter are free with membership; everything else carries a member price against the public rate. You buy everything here at your member rate; partner courses run on the provider’s own platform, one click away, and every completion comes back to a single CE transcript sorted against your state’s requirement. This catalog sits alongside the NASW CE Institute, not in place of it: your existing CE stays exactly where it is.
Renewal period ends Oct 31, 2026. Requirements update automatically for your state and license (change it in the header). License, state, and renewal date come from NASW's iMIS record, and every hour you earn posts back to iMIS, so your NASW transcript and your renewal record always match.

The same completions post back to your official NASW record in iMIS as CE activities, so your member transcript stays current with zero effort.

| On this revenue | What NASW earns | Who it is credited to | Paid how |
|---|---|---|---|
| CE produced by an NASW chapter, taken in state | The full amount. No per-sale cut to the platform or anyone else | The producing chapter | Kept at the point of sale; the platform is covered by the annual fee |
| CE produced by an NASW chapter, taken cross state | The full amount | Split between the member's chapter and the producer | Monthly, 70% home chapter, 30% producer |
| CE, exam prep and certification from an outside provider | 5% of the amount collected | NASW national, then chapters | Kept by NASW at monthly settlement |
| Purchases by non-members at public price | The same 5%, on a larger sale | NASW national, then chapters | Kept by NASW at monthly settlement |
Monthly, net 15.
NASW's own gateway collects every dollar. A chapter's own CE stays with the chapter in full. On outside-provider sales, NASW keeps 5% and pays the provider the rest once a month against a line-level statement.
| Step | When | Who does what |
|---|---|---|
| Member buys | At purchase | NASW's own payment gateway collects the full amount. The platform records the member, the chapter, the product, and the split rate in force that day. |
| Refund window | 30 days from purchase | Refunds run back through NASW's gateway. The share is reversed in the period the refund lands, not the period of the sale. |
| Month closes | Last day of the month | Statement produced: chapter CE revenue, outside-provider spend, the 5% share, provider payable, chapter attribution. |
| Statement delivered | Within 5 business days | Line-level file to NASW finance, and the same figures appear in this dashboard. |
| Providers paid | 15th of the following month | NASW pays each outside provider 95% of its sales out of funds it already holds, against the same statement. |
| Chapters credited | Within 10 business days of settlement | National credits each chapter its 40% of the rev-share pool. Own-CE revenue was never pooled and stays with the producing chapter. |
| Annual true-up | 60 days after fiscal year end | Disputed or adjusted lines are settled for the year. |
