Court-ordered classes by state

Court-Ordered Classes by State

Most of our guides are organised by class type. These state hubs flip that around: one page per state, listing every court-ordered class requirement we've published a verified guide for there.

Court-ordered class requirements fragment sharply by geography. The class type, the number of hours, who approves the provider and whether an online course counts are set at the state level for some topics and by the individual county court or probation department for others — which is why a class accepted in one county can be rejected a county away. These hubs exist so you can see everything we've verified for your state in one place before you enroll in anything.

Independent directory: NextStep Counseling is an independent information site — not a court, a government agency, or a class provider. Always confirm the exact class, format and an accepted provider with the court that ordered you before enrolling or paying.
