### What the CMHP credential is

The Florida Certification Board lists Certified Mental Health Professional (CMHP) among its behavioral-health credentials. Use the current credential guide as the final authority before submitting documents or paying fees.

    #### Confirm education and training
    
    A bachelor’s degree or higher in a qualifying Tier I or Tier II field. 150 hours for Tier I degrees or 250 hours for Tier II degrees.
    
2.  2
    
    #### Document experience and supervision
    
    2,000 hours for Tier I degrees or 4,000 hours for Tier II degrees, from the five years before application. 100 hours for Tier I or 150 hours for Tier II, documented by qualified supervisors.
    
3.  3
