SCCAP’s Professional Development Series focuses on issues specific to children and adolescents. The webinars may be taken for continuing education credits or for general professional development for psychologists, other mental health professionals, and students. These career-related programs are designed for both researchers and practitioners.
SCCAP’s CE goals are to advance knowledge and practice as it pertains to the culturally and ethnically appropriate development and application of evidence based approaches to assessment, diagnosis, and treatment (preventative, educational, psychotherapeutic) of emotional, developmental, behavioral problems in children and adolescents and their parents/caretakers. CE efforts may include specific training regarding assessment and intervention techniques, expanding knowledge about the development of psychopathology, as well as programs designed to enhance research design, data analytic skills, and development of innovative approaches to assessment, intervention or service care delivery.
As an APA-approved sponsor of continuing education, SCCAP is committed to the identification and resolution of potential conflicts of interest in the planning, promotion, delivery, and evaluation of continuing education. If you have identified a potential Conflict of Interest or have a general complaint with one of our webinars, please follow the process on the SCCAP Webinar Concerns Document.
We strive to provide an inclusive, accessible experience that enables all individuals to participate fully in our programming. Auto-captioning will be enabled, and you will be able to access a transcript of the recording one week after the webinar. We do our best to provide slides before the webinar. These slides will be posted next to the website advertisements.
