Continuing Education Credits
WSPP is a local chapter of SPPP (Division 39) of the American Psychological Association (APA). WSPP is approved by the American Psychological Association to sponsor continuing education for psychologists. These CE’s are also accepted by the DC Board of Social Work for social workers. Please check with your local licensing Board to find out if these CE’s can be applied to continuing education requirements for your state and discipline. Each Friday seminar, when attended in its entirety, earns 3 CE’s, which are free for members and included in the registration fee for non-members.
SPPP is committed to accessibility and non-discrimination in its continuing education activities. SPPP is also committed to conducting all activities in conformity with the American Psychological Association’s Ethical Principles for Psychologists. Participants are asked to be aware of the need for privacy and confidentiality throughout the program. If program content becomes stressful, participants are encouraged to process these feelings during discussion periods. If participants have special needs, we will attempt to accommodate them. Please address questions, concerns and any complaints to Elizabeth Rankin.
