MG&A’s Comprehensive Customized Employment (CCE) Course is an in-depth, interactive, and engaging class, based on MG&A’s forty-plus years of organizational expertise. This class offers learners all the foundational information and basic competencies of Discovery and Customized Job Development.
Mastering the practice of Discovery, Customized Job Development, and Systematic Instruction requires guided, supported experience in the field. MG&A's Performance-Based Certification (PBC) builds upon the knowledge gained by CE-certified students and further develops their skill set to provide Customized Employment and Systematic Instruction (SI) services.
MG&A’s Performance-Based Certification requires first that the mentee has completed the requisite training in the area of certification (Discovery, Customized Job Development, or Systematic Instruction). No student may pursue multiple certifications at the same time. A student who has received their ACRE Certificate must complete a Discovery PBC before moving on to Customized Job Development.

Please note: registering for a PBC purchases the hours a mentor must commit to guiding you through the course and does not guarantee a student's success. Reasonable accommodations may be permitted when pursuing a PBC, but unsatisfactory work (including an inability to complete the course within the permitted timeframe) may lead to failure of the course. See handbooks for further details.
Recertification
MG&A’s Performance-Based Certifications are valid for a three (3)-year period. Recertification validates your training for an additional three (3) years.
Recertification requires only a document review based in your certification content area (Discovery, Job Development, or Systematic Instruction). Similar to the process of initial certification, you will be asked to include in your sample all recent, relevant documents for your job seeker. You may not re-use documents provided during your initial certification.
