Will My Employer Accept This Anger Management Training?

Our training is accepted by employers, HR departments, and licensing boards nationwide – but acceptance is ultimately your employer’s decision, so confirm the requirement before you enroll. Ask HR two things: whether online completion is acceptable, and whether they require a specific number of hours. Those are the two details that typically cause a certificate to be rejected.

Your certificate of completion is available in your course room as soon as you finish the final lesson, and includes your full name, the course title, and the completion date. If your employer requires a physical copy, we’ll mail a certified original by USPS Priority Mail at no charge – just request it, and it ships within two to three business days. Since 2008, Mastering Anger programs have been used to meet court, probation, attorney, and employer requirements, and Mastering Anger is a SHRM Recertification Provider.

How Much Does the Training Cost, and How Long Does It Take?

The workplace anger management training costs $99 and covers 8 lessons plus a final quiz. Because it’s self-paced with no minimum time requirement, completion time varies — most participants finish across one or two sittings. That’s a one-time payment with no certificate fee and no processing fee.

Your enrollment includes:

All 8 lessons, accessible on any device
Your certificate of completion, available in your course room immediately, at no extra cost
A certified physical certificate by USPS Priority Mail on request — free, shipped within 2–3 business days
Email support Monday to Friday, 9 AM – 6 PM EST

There’s no minimum time requirement and no scheduled sessions. You can complete the training in one sitting or across several days — your progress saves each time you log out.

Is My Enrollment Confidential?

When you enroll and pay for the training yourself, your enrollment and course activity are private. We do not contact your employer, and we do not share your progress, quiz results, or completion status with anyone unless you ask us to.

You control what your employer sees. When you finish, your certificate is available in your course room and you decide how to submit it – download it yourself, print it, or request a certified physical copy by mail.

The exception is group enrollment. If your employer purchased your seat through the group purchase option, their HR or admin can monitor employee progress from a single dashboard – that’s what the group option is for. If your employer bought you an individual course instead, it’s set up as an individual account and they have no access to your progress.

If you’re unsure which applies, check whether you received an enrollment link from your company or purchased the course yourself.

Who Should Take This Training?

This training is designed for professionals whose employer, HR department, or licensing board has asked them to complete anger management training, and for anyone in a high-pressure or people-facing role who wants better tools before an incident happens. It’s used across healthcare, law enforcement, education, customer service, and corporate environments.

This training is ideal for:

Team leaders, supervisors, and managers
HR managers and specialists
Customer service representatives
Sales professionals
Retail and hospitality staff
Healthcare workers — see our anger management course for physicians and course for nurses
First responders — see our anger management course for law enforcement
Educators, teachers, and school administrators

Spanish-speaking professionals — see our Spanish-language courses

Organizations enrolling multiple employees should select the group purchase option at checkout, which unlocks a dashboard for enrolling staff and tracking completion.

What’s Covered in the Anger Management Training?

The training covers seven subject areas across 8 lessons, combining anger management fundamentals with communication and conflict skills applied to workplace situations.

Core skills:

Fundamentals of anger management — how anger functions physiologically and behaviorally, and how to interrupt the escalation cycle
Stress management — identifying accumulating pressure before it surfaces as a reaction
Emotional competence — recognizing your own triggers and reading them in othersn
Resiliency — recovering from setbacks and criticism without carrying them into the next interaction

Workplace application:

Communication skills — being direct without being combative, especially under pressure
Negotiation — resolving competing interests without either party escalating
Workplace anger (special focus module) — applying every prior skill to real scenarios: performance reviews, difficult clients, conflict with a supervisor
Practical exercises — self-reflection work and a quiz confirming you can apply the material, not just recall it

How Do I Enroll My Employees in Anger Management Training?

Employers enrolling multiple staff should choose the group purchase option on the Workplace Anger Management Course. Once your purchase is complete, your group management dashboard becomes available in your account, and from there you can enroll your employees, assign seats, and monitor each person’s completion status in one place.

The process is five steps: choose the Workplace Anger Management Course, select “group” at checkout, enter the number of seats depending on how many employees are enrolling, complete the purchase as normal, then open your group management page to enroll your employees and track their progress. The dashboard appears after purchase, so there’s nothing to set up beforehand.

Choose the group purchase option, not individual courses. If you buy individual courses for employees — the 1-Hour Anger Management Course, for example — each purchase is set up as a separate individual account, and you won’t be able to manage or monitor them from a dashboard.

Only the group purchase option on the Workplace Anger Management Course unlocks the group management page. If you’re unsure which option fits your organization, contact us before purchasing.

What Past Participants Say About Our Courses

Tackles every aspect of managing anger and communication

This course is very complete. I really think it tackles every aspect of how to manage anger and how to communicate, what causes it, and how we can deal with it. I enjoyed this course and learned a lot.

Easy to understand, but you have to do the work

I learned a lot from this employee anger management class. It was very easy to understand — and believe me when I say you have to watch the modules or you're not going to pass the test.

The information really sank in

My experience was great. The information was set up in a way that made it really sink in. It was informative, and I wish I had known this whole process earlier.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

My employer told me to take anger management training. Will they accept this course?

Most employers do. Since 2008, Mastering Anger programs have been used to meet employer, HR, court, and licensing board requirements. That said, acceptance is your employer’s decision — before enrolling, ask HR whether online completion is acceptable and whether they require a specific number of hours. If your certificate is rejected, contact us and we’ll work with you on it.

How do I get my certificate, and can I get a physical copy?

Your certificate is available in your course room immediately after you complete the final lesson, and you can download or print it yourself. If you need a certified physical copy — some employers and licensing boards require one — request it and we’ll mail it free by USPS Priority Mail, shipped within two to three business days.

Will my employer see my progress or quiz results?

If you enrolled and paid yourself, no — your course activity is private and we don’t contact your employer. If your company purchased your seat through the group purchase option, their HR or admin can see your enrollment and completion status through their dashboard.

How long does the training take, and can I finish it in one day?

The training covers 8 lessons and is fully self-paced — there’s no minimum time requirement and no scheduled sessions, so you can complete it in a single day if you have a deadline. Your progress saves automatically, so you can also spread it across several sessions.

Can we enroll a whole team, and how do we manage it?

Yes. On the Workplace Anger Management Course, choose the group purchase option at checkout rather than buying individual courses. Once the purchase is complete, your group management dashboard becomes available in your account, and you can enroll employees, assign seats, and monitor everyone’s completion from one place.

Individual course purchases, such as the 1-Hour Anger Management Course, are set up as individual accounts with no dashboard access, so select “group” if you need to track completion. Contact us if you’d like help setting it up.
