Finish Your Virginia Court-Ordered Anger Management Class Online, Today.

Yes — 100% guaranteed. Our anger management certificates are accepted by courts in all 50 states, Virginia included, and students complete them for General District, Circuit, and Juvenile & Domestic Relations District Courts from Fairfax and Prince William out to Virginia's smallest counties and independent cities. If your Virginia court doesn't accept it for any reason, we refund you in full — that's our written guarantee.

Almost certainly not — and we'd rather tell you before you pay. Virginia handles a first-offense assault and battery against a family or household member under Code § 18.2-57.3, which lets a judge order "treatment, education programs, or services" based on an assessment from your local community-based probation agency — and in practice, that assessment routes to a certified Batterer Intervention Program (BIP), not a general anger-management class. Virginia's BIP standards, set by the Virginia Batterer Intervention Program Certification Board, run a minimum of 36 hours over 18 weeks for lower-risk cases and 54 hours over 36 weeks for moderate-to-higher-risk cases, delivered in person. This class is not that program, and we don't want to sell it to you as one.

If your charge names a family or household member, or your paperwork mentions "batterer intervention," "domestic violence," or § 18.2-57.3, confirm the exact requirement with your judge, attorney, or local community-based probation agency before you enroll anywhere. If your order simply says "anger management" and doesn't involve a family or household member, this class is built for exactly that — and if you'd like a second pair of eyes on the wording first, contact our support team.

No — the class and the certificate work the same either way. Virginia is unique: alongside its 95 counties, it has 38 independent cities — including Virginia Beach, Richmond, Norfolk, and Alexandria — that run their own General District, Circuit, and Juvenile & Domestic Relations District Courts, entirely separate from any surrounding county. Whether your case sits in a county court or a city court, the requirement and the certificate look the same, and you complete the same online class either way. (A few Virginia place names — Fairfax, Franklin, Richmond, and Roanoke — name both a county and a separate, same-named independent city, so double-check which one your paperwork actually references.)

Yes — in seconds. Every certificate carries a unique ID your probation officer, attorney, or court clerk can check on our public verification page anytime, whether your case is supervised by a local community-based probation agency in Norfolk, Hanover, Chesterfield, or elsewhere across the state. Many Virginia students also download the enrollment letter on day one to show their PO they've started.

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.

No. The price you see is the full price. Your certificate, your Proof of Enrollment letter, and certificate verification are all included — we never charge extra for the documents your court needs.

The only optional extra is Unlimited Retakes — you choose whether to add it at checkout.

Most students complete their course in one sitting. You can also stop and resume anytime — your progress is automatically saved.

Immediately. As soon as you complete the course, your certificate is ready to download. You can print it or email it directly to your attorney or probation officer.

Check your court order or ask your attorney — the required hours are usually written in your court paperwork, plea agreement, or sentencing recommendation.

• 4 hours: the most common order we see — typical for first-time or minor incidents
• 8 hours: common for misdemeanor charges
• 12 hours: required by some state courts for repeat or more serious incidents
• 16 hours: the safe choice — it covers every standard requirement up to 16 hours

When in doubt, choose more hours. Courts accept a longer certificate than ordered — never a shorter one. Still unsure? Take the 60-second quiz and we'll recommend the right length.

Real skills, not filler. The curriculum is written by Tiffany Gorham, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. You'll learn how to:

• Spot your personal triggers and early warning signs
• Calm yourself down in the moment
• Communicate through difficult conversations
• Manage stress and emotions for the long term

40% of our reviews mention "learned a lot" — even from students who enrolled just to satisfy a court order.

Everything courts typically require: your full legal name, the course title and hours (4, 8, 12, or 16 — matching your enrollment), your completion date, a unique certificate ID with QR code for verification, and Courseable's provider details.

It's a professional PDF — print it or email it straight to your attorney, probation officer, or court clerk.

Yes — it's automatic. As soon as you enroll and complete the short intake form, we email you an official Proof of Enrollment letter. It shows your name, enrollment date, course title, and expected completion timeline — ready to share with your attorney, court, or probation officer.

Same material, same certificate — the difference is pace:

• Self-paced: finish as fast as you like, even in one sitting.
• Weekly: one lesson unlocks per week, so a 12-week course takes at least 12 weeks. Only choose this if your court order specifically requires weekly sessions.

If your order just says "12-hour anger management course" without mentioning weekly sessions, the self-paced 12-hour course fulfills it.

Usually not — and you shouldn't risk it. If your paperwork specifically says in person, group, live, or instructor-led, a self-paced course may not satisfy it.

That's what our live weekly anger management class is for: a real class over Zoom with a licensed instructor, one 2-hour class each week, 2 to 12 weeks depending on your order. You join any week, your instructor verifies attendance at roll call, and your certificate states the weeks you attended. From $85, backed by the same acceptance guarantee.

If your order just names a number of hours, the self-paced course on this page is the faster path.

No, this is not a Batterer's Intervention Program (BIP). These are two different types of programs:

• Anger Management Course (this course): Teaches general skills for managing anger, communication, and emotional regulation. Typically 4–16 hours.
• Batterer's Intervention Program (BIP): A specialized program specifically for domestic violence cases, usually requiring 52 weeks of attendance.

If your court order specifically requires a "Batterer's Intervention Program," "BIP," or "52-week domestic violence program," this course will NOT satisfy that requirement.

Check your court paperwork carefully. If it says "anger management" without mentioning BIP or domestic violence intervention, our course will meet your needs.

No — that's a separate course, and we offer it too. Courts order impulse control & decision-making classes for charges like petty theft, disorderly conduct, or first-offense diversion, while anger management covers anger-related orders. If your paperwork says "impulse control," "decision-making," "thinking errors," or "making better choices," enroll in that class instead — same instant certificate and 100% acceptance guarantee.
