Do you need to have a license in order to be a Family Life Educator?
There is no legal requirement for family life education. Anyone can say that they are a family life educator. That is one of the reasons that the National Council on Family Relations created the Certified Family Life Educator (CFLE) credential. The CFLE credential recognizes that the designate has met industry standards for effective practice.
