THIS TRAINING FULFILLS SUPERVISION (3 clock hours) AND ETHICS (3 clock hours) REQUIREMENT
In this training, participants will be actively engaged in acting out role playing from prepared scripts which reflect generic ethical dilemmas encountered by practitioners and supervisors, for example: conflicts between agency policy and treatment goals, the process of informed consent, truth-telling and competing interests and more. The morning session (3hrs) will be focused on practitioner dilemmas introduced by a mini lecture on ethical theories and codes. The afternoon(3hrs) will focus on supervisory dilemmas preceded by a mini lecture on supervision. Participants are required to read the NASW and Ohio Licensing Board Codes prior to the workshop. A website for these Codes will be provided.
Participants will learn:
· To use a 5-step procedure for addressing ethical dilemmas
· To use ethical codes and ethical theory to help resolve ethical problems.
· How to address ethical dilemmas facing supervisors of direct practitioners
