Social Work 继续教育学分
Renewing your Kentucky social work license requires more than filing paperwork. 社工执照更新的要求之一是完成继续教育学分. 社会工作者个人有责任确保他们意识到并正确地履行这一要求. 2012年7月, 为社会工作继续教育学分设定参数的规章制度得到了更新. Read on to find out what you need to know to keep your license up-to-date.
Tabulation of Continuing Education Hours
Kentucky Administrative Regulations (201 KAR 23:075, 第二节设定了社会工作者需要完成的继续教育学分的数量标准, 根据license状态. 适用于康文署及康文署牌照续期, 考生必须每三年至少接受30小时的继续教育. This requirement drops down to 15 hours every three years for LSW.
该条例将“继续教育小时”定义为参加继续教育项目的50分钟. 根据这个定义，一个学期的学分等于15个继续教育学时.
满足您的需求
社会工作者达到CEC要求的最简单方法是参加大学课程, either online or in a traditional setting. 肯塔基州法律规定，任何由全国社会工作者协会(NASW)赞助的教育项目, Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB), 临床社会工作协会, American Psychological Association (APA), 美国心理咨询协会(ACA)或美国精神病学协会(APA)被认为与社会工作领域有关. 通过社会工作教育委员会认可的社会工作项目提供的课程, 比如布雷西亚的在线 社会工作学士 program, count toward the CEC requirement and are not subject to board review.
If a program of study does not meet the above conditions, the social work board will review the course to determine its relevancy. See the next section on how to properly document your CEC for board review.
回家学习, 远程学习和远程会议可能不会超过个人所需CEC的一半. 社会工作者也可以获得学分, not to exceed half of the total required, 通过指导一个被认可的教育项目或在专业认可的出版物上发表文章. 社会工作伦理的必修课程必须亲自参加，并由现场主持人主持. Ethics courses or programs must be submitted to the board for approval.
记录你的继续教育
如果社会工作者决定参加一个不符合社会工作委员会自动批准标准的项目，必须提交某些文件供委员会批准. All ethics courses must also receive board approval.
- 已出版的课程大纲或类似的描述，包括课程目标.
- Names and qualifications of the instructors—CV or resumes.
- Copies of evaluation sheet or equivalent.
- Program agenda indicating hours of education, including breaks.
- Official certificate of completion or college transcript.
- 填写完整的提供者继续教育学分批准申请表.
所需表格可在 肯塔基州社会工作委员会 页面.
当选择一个教育项目时，尽可能多地了解提供者. 你的教育提供者应该让社会工作者参与课程的规划, 涵盖与社会工作相关的内容, 在开始时提供书面教学大纲和课程目标，并颁发完成证书. However, do not rely solely on a CEC provider for documentation. Responsibility for continuing education falls on the social worker; be sure to keep records of any continuing education sessions attended for up to seven years.
Stipulations for Kentucky Social Workers
每个续订期, 至少三个小时必须在社会工作道德规范领域完成. 康文署督导员必须在每次续期内修毕经委员会批准的督导员课程. 每三个续期, 或者每九年一次, all social workers must complete at least two hours in HIV/AIDS courses, as approved by the Cabinet for Health and Family Services. 每隔一个续期，或每六年一次，所有社工必须完成1.5 hours in recognition and prevention of pediatric head trauma. 最后, for only the first renewal period (the three years after initial licensure), three hours must be completed in domestic violence.
