Course Description

This course is for individuals who received their Credential for Strengths-based Family Workers (SFW) but missed the deadline for recredential.

A hallmark of a strong credentialing program is recredentialing. Recredentialing allows workers to demonstrate that they are still competent in strengths-based skills, stay up-to-date on new developments in the field, and remain connected to the network. 

SFW requires recredentialing every three years, therefore individuals who received their credentials for example in 2018 were due to complete the recredential course by December 31, 2021. This reinstatement and recredential course will allow individuals who missed the deadline an opportunity to obtain their recredential.

REGISTRATION CLOSES JUNE 26, 2024 -  to ensure you have time to complete the assignments prior to the course end date.

REGISTRATION CLOSES JUNE 27, 2024 -  to ensure you have time to complete the assignments prior to the course end date. 

Once you have registered for the course, you can access your course through Temple University’s Learning Management System, Canvas.

In order to access Canvas, you will need to complete the steps below.

  1. After you are registered, you will receive an automated email with the subject line “Temple University System Access”. This email gives you steps to activate your Temple University account. The account at Temple is called an AccessNet, and this will be different than the account you’ve created at the noncredit.temple.edu (DestinyOne) site.
  2. Following the instructions in the “Temple University System Access” email will take you to accounts.temple.edu, where you’ll input your TU ID (included in the email-9 digit number), your last name, and your Date of Birth. Please note that if you enter different information than you provided Temple University in your initial class registration, you will see an error message on the account activation page and should contact destiny1@temple.edu for a fix.

Within 24 hours after activating your AccessNet, the learning management system access will be completed, and you will be able to start your online participation in the course.

To log into Canvas directly go to canvas.temple.edu or log in to TUportal. Under TUapplications on the left, select Canvas. Use your TU AccessNet to log into Canvas. This is different than the DestinyOne Username and password.
