Extremely helpful and user friendly . It was easy to follow, flexible, and it gave me the tools to manage my emotions and communicate better. The pricing was also very competitive for the amount of content provided. Highly recommended to anyone looking to gain better control over their emotions.

Thomas M.

(New York City)

This was a subtle way to learn how to cope with anger. I also liked how everything was online and accessible on my phone. That made a whole lot of difference because I could take the course while I was moving around too. I feel it has made me a better a person. Thank you

Jennifer T.

(Amityville, NY)

I took this course as advised by my lawyer to help with having visitations with my son. Not having any idea if it would help or not, I did it. I found it to be something 99 percent of people could benefit from. I believe every single person have some anger issues no matter what their triggers are. I will reflect back to this course as needed.

Everything You Need to Know About This New York Anger Management Class

Have questions? We’ve got answers!

Are online classes accepted in New York City courts?
✅ Yes. Courts in all five NYC boroughs — Bronx, Kings (Brooklyn), Queens, Manhattan, and Staten Island — allow defendants or parties to complete court-ordered anger management online. Providers like Courseable have issued certificates that are routinely accepted by NYC criminal courts, probation departments, and Family Court judges.
Does New York State in general accept online anger management courses?
Yes. New York courts generally accept online anger management classes for both criminal and family court cases. There is no statewide requirement that these courses be taken in person, and no New York counties are known to prohibit online anger management. Judges and probation officers have the discretion to approve reputable online programs that issue official completion certificates.
Do I need pre-approval for an online class in New York?
In most cases, New York judges and probation officers accept online certificates without issue. However, it’s always best to confirm with your attorney or probation officer before enrolling, especially in criminal court cases. Courseable provides same-day enrollment letters and verifiable certificates to make this process easier.
What if my New York court order specifies hours or weeks?
New York courts often order courses of specific durations (e.g., 8, 12, or 16 hours, or 12 weeks). Courseable offers multiple course lengths to match your exact requirement. Our certificates clearly state the number of hours completed, so your court or probation officer can easily verify compliance.

Are the online anger management classes offered by Courseable court-approved?

Yes, they are. The content of the classes has been created by an NAMS-certified anger therapist, based on the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy methodology, and should meet all court requirements. After serving 100s of students, we have a perfect 100% approval rate.

How do I get a court to approve your online anger management class?

Acceptance is at the discretion of the judge in your specific case. The safest method is to have your attorney file a motion with the court requesting permission to use our online program. You should not enroll until you have a signed court order explicitly approving it.

What's the difference between "Anger Management" and a "Batterer's Intervention Program"?

They are completely different. General Anger Management teaches skills to handle the emotion of anger. A BIP is a highly regulated, year-long program for domestic violence offenders that addresses themes of power, control, and the effects of violence on victims, as required by state law. Mistaking one for the other can lead to a probation violation.

Is there a money-back guarantee?

Yes, if for any reason your class certification is not accepted by a court, just let us know and we will 100% of your money back.

How soon can I get my certificate?

Immediately. After you complete your final quiz you will get your certificate immediately. We will also send your certificate to your Attorney, Probation Officer or Court (optional based on your preference)

Can I get an enrollment letter?

Yes, after you sign up and complete the intake form you’ll be given an enrollment letter.

Can I really take my course from my phone?

Yes, you can access the courses in Courseable from any device. No app or download is required.

Are the courses self-paced?

Yes, you can take all the courses at your own pace and be issued a certificate of completion when you complete all the materials and quizzes. 

What if I need help?

If you need help, you can chat with us using the 24X7 chat support, call us or send us an email. Someone from our USA based support team will assist you.

Not sure which anger management class you need?

If your court or employer told you to take an anger management class but didn’t say how many hours, don’t worry—we can help.

Here’s the quick breakdown:

  • 4-Hour Course – Good for minor offenses, skill refreshers, or personal growth.

  • 8-Hour Course – Most commonly accepted when the number of hours isn’t specified.

  • 12-Hour Course – For more serious cases or when a judge or probation officer clearly mandates 12 hours.

📌 If your paperwork doesn’t specify hours, we recommend the 8-hour course. It meets most court and employer requirements and includes everything from the 4-hour version, plus deeper material.
