Level Education Group issued a correction to a news release regarding its partnership with the Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic Transformation (CCBHC-T) Workforce Accelerator program. The applications deadline for the first cohort has been moved up from June 30, 2026, to May 22, 2026.
Partnership Details
Triad, the B2B platform of Level Education Group, announced the partnership with the CCBHC-T Workforce Accelerator, a national initiative operating in Illinois, Kansas, and Michigan. Through the collaboration, AATBS, a Level Education Group brand, will provide licensure exam preparation to clinicians pursuing careers in community-based behavioral health settings. The program supports professionals pursuing licensure as clinical social workers, counselors, marriage and family therapists, and psychologists, as well as licensure or certification as substance use counselors.
Program Support and Scope
The scholarship-based Workforce Career Accelerator provides selected participants with financial incentives valued up to $8,500, alongside comprehensive support including licensure exam preparation, exam fee coverage, candidate peer discussions, employment site training and technical assistance, and a structured professional development curriculum. Level Education Group is also donating one year of unlimited continuing education courses to program participants.
According to Health Resources and Services Administration data cited in the release, 137 million people lived in areas last year where there was a shortage of mental health professionals, up 12% from 122 million in 2024. Research from Motivo Health found that more than half (54%) of master’s-level therapists and social workers never make it to licensure. The program is funded by Ballmer Group through the National Council for Mental Wellbeing, which brings over a decade of CCBHC expertise to the initiative.
Jamie Harper, Level Education Group CEO, stated: “Through Triad and our family of brands, we are proud to support the clinicians who will serve on the frontlines of care. This partnership expands access to care while investing in the long-term success of the behavioral health workforce.”
