Webinar Common Questions

LIVE INTERACTIVE WEBINAR POLICIES & FAQs

1. Are the webinars live?

Yes. The webinars are live and interactive – they are not pre-recorded. You should treat the webinars as if you are attending an in-person course in a classroom setting, which means Live Interactive Webinars require proper classroom etiquette. The instructor will always require your participation and attention.

2. Who are you authorized by?

While most licensing boards (Social Work, Professional Counselors and Psychologists) accept CE credits provided by Accredited Schools/Colleges of Social Work, licensees are responsible for determining where specific courses meet their jurisdiction’s requirements.  State and provincial regulatory boards have the final authority to determine whether an individual course may be accepted for continuing education credit.

The Office of Continuing Professional Education is approved by the following organizations:

• The Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB) Approved Continuing Education (ACE) Program, Provider number 1611, which is accepted by most States and Provinces. https://www.aswb.org/ace/ace-jurisdiction-map/
• The Maryland Board of Social Worker Examiners (BSWE).
• Maryland Board of Professional Counselors and Therapists.
• DC Department of Health: Professional Counseling and Social Work.
