A PCMI participant who successfully completes both the classroom-based training and the field practicum shall be eligible to receive the Peer Case Manager Certification.
After verifying that a PCMI participant has met the requirements of this chapter for certification as a peer case manager, the Department shall issue a Peer Case Manager Certification, signed by the Director or their designee, to the participant as evidence of successful completion of the PCMI.
The Peer Case Manager Certification is not a license, and completion of the PCMI does not guarantee employment with any agency or provider. Gaining employment as a case manager after successfully completing the PCMI will require successful completion of the individual employer's job candidate selection process, including any criminal background check and drug screening required for the particular position.
