Finish Your Texas Decision-Making Course Online, Today.

Yes — 100% guaranteed. Texas class conditions are set county-by-county: municipal and justice-court judges can attach course conditions to deferred cases, prosecutors set diversion terms, and CSCDs assign classes on supervision. Confirm the format on your paperwork — and if your Texas court doesn't accept our certificate for any reason, we refund you in full.

Yes — that's Texas's official vocabulary for this class family. Harris County's probation department runs an 8-hour class it calls "Effective Decision Making," Travis County's catalog includes "Cognitive Life Skills," and Houston defense attorneys describe the county's retail-theft diversion around an 8-hour "cognitive skills class." Our curriculum covers the same cognitive-behavioral skills — decision-making frameworks, impulse control, and thinking errors — and the certificate documents the curriculum and hours completed. If your paperwork names a specific county-run program or vendor, complete that one or check with support first.

Follow the list — or ask. Some Texas municipal courts publish approved-provider lists for these classes, and some county diversion programs name a designated vendor. If your paperwork points to a list or a named program, use it or ask your court whether an equivalent online class is acceptable. Where the provider is left open — the more common case — this course qualifies, backed by our 100% acceptance guarantee.

Match your paperwork — 4 and 8 hours are the common Texas assignments. County-run programs teach one-day 8-hour classes, and 4-hour orders are typical for lighter cases. Choose the length your order names; a longer certificate always satisfies a shorter requirement. If no hours are listed, ask your supervision officer or take the 60-second quiz.

Yes, 100% guaranteed. Our courses are accepted by courts in all 50 states. If your court doesn't accept our certificate for any reason, we'll give you a full refund.

An impulse control class is a cognitive-behavioral skills course that courts, probation officers, and diversion programs order when a charge involved acting on impulse — commonly petty theft or shoplifting, disorderly conduct, vandalism, or a first offense. It teaches practical skills: pausing before acting, managing strong emotions, weighing consequences, and recognizing the thinking traps behind poor decisions.

This is that class. Our curriculum includes dedicated impulse-control and emotion-regulation lessons, and your certificate documents the curriculum and hours completed — accepted by courts in all 50 states, or your money back.

If your paperwork says impulse control, decision-making, thinking errors, or making better choices — yes. Courts commonly order impulse-control classes for theft-related charges, and this course teaches the skills those orders require: impulse control, consequence thinking, and better decision-making.

If your order specifically names a "theft awareness" or "anti-theft" class instead, contact our support team before enrolling and we'll confirm the right fit. Either way, you're protected by our 100% acceptance guarantee.

Yes. "Decision-making" and "impulse control" are two names courts use for the same type of cognitive-behavioral skills class. Our curriculum covers both — a complete decision-making framework plus dedicated impulse-control and emotion-regulation lessons — and your certificate documents the full curriculum and hours completed. Courts that order "decision-making" accept this class — guaranteed, or your money back.

Almost always, yes. These are different names for the same family of CBT-based classes, and our curriculum covers the required skills: recognizing thinking traps, managing impulses, weighing consequences, and making values-based choices. If your order names a specific licensed program (like Thinking for a Change® or MRT®), check with your probation officer first. Either way, you're protected by our 100% acceptance guarantee.

Yes. "Adult Decision-Making Course" is the name many prosecutors' diversion programs and probation departments use for this requirement. This is a 100% online adult decision-making course covering the decision-making and impulse-control skills those orders require, and your certificate documents the curriculum and hours completed. If your paperwork uses that name, this course satisfies it — from anywhere in the country, backed by our 100% acceptance guarantee.

Our curriculum is created by Jennifer Connor-Smith, PhD, a licensed psychologist and cognitive-behavioral-therapy expert who specializes in decision-making and behavioral science. You'll learn:

• A simple, repeatable framework for making better decisions
• How to cool down and define a problem clearly before reacting
• Impulse-control and emotion-regulation strategies
• How to connect your values and goals to everyday choices
• How to handle conflict, peer pressure, and group decisions

Even students who initially enrolled just to meet a court requirement report gaining practical skills they use at work and at home.

Check your court order or ask your attorney. The required hours should be specified in your court documentation, plea agreement, or probation terms.

If you're unsure, here are some general guidelines:

• 4 hours: Often required for minor incidents or first-time offenses
• 8 hours: Common for misdemeanor charges
• 12 hours: Meets requirements for most state courts
• 16 hours: Required for some felony cases or repeat offenses

When in doubt, choose more hours. A longer certificate satisfies a shorter requirement. Courts accept certificates that exceed the minimum requirement.

That depends on the length your court requires — 4, 8, 12, or 16 hours. Many students complete the 4-hour course in one sitting; you can also stop and resume anytime — your progress is automatically saved.

This class is 100% self-paced. There are no weekly classes to attend and no waiting periods.

You can complete the entire course in one sitting if you wish, or break it up over several days. You have full control over your schedule.

If your court order specifically requires "weekly sessions," this self-paced course may not meet that specific requirement. For standard hourly requirements, this self-paced format is widely accepted.

No app download required. The course runs in your web browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge) on iPhone, Android, iPad, tablets, laptops, and desktop computers.

This is an adult class. If a court ordered a class for someone under 18, contact our support team before enrolling and we'll help you find the right fit.
