Developing an Ethical Framework - Ethics CEU (1 hr)
Developing an Ethical Framework - Ethics CEU (1 hr)
As the political environment becomes more hostile to transgender youth, what are our ethical obligations to our trans clients? I created this CEU to help ask deep questions about ethics, and how we can develop a framework sufficient for today’s challenges. This CEU is primarily theoretical, as true ethics must be developed, not directed.
CONTENT WARNING
Note from Kimberly:
This CEU will discuss how professional ethics aren't enough to weather this moment.
We will be reflecting on some of the great ethical challenges of our times, and the philosophical and ethical ideas that emerged as a response. We will then discuss some possible applications for practice.
Given that we're talking about ethical challenges, those challenges will be discussed in plain language. This will not be an easy listen, especially if you have to jump back into work. More details will be provided after registration.
This CEU will have far fewer slides than usual. These topics deserve a seriousness that the slides would undercut. I'd suggest bringing something to work on, like a coloring book or puzzle, to help focus while listening.
1 Hour
This CEU will be held online on Monday, August 18th
7 PM - 8 PM CST
(8 PM - 9 PM EST // 5 PM - 6 PM PST)
NOTE: To help accurately plan enrollment, we ask that you do not sign up for sessions you are not planning on attending.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
For Texas and North Carolina, absolutely! I know what they require because I’m licensed in those states.
For other states, check with your state licensing board for more definitive information and specific requirements.
This CEU is not pre-approved by any state or organization.
Per Texas Board of Social Work Examiners (Title 22, Part 34, Chapter 781, Subchapter C, Rule §781.501), Texas views CEUs given by council-approved Supervisors as in the same category as CEUs given by national organizations like the NASW.
(For more background: approval processes can cost hundreds of dollars. Usually, only CEUs that would recoup these fees go through this process. If I were to get national certification for a class, I probably would not be able to offer it for free.)
-
All CEUs are held online.
-
The CEU is live.
-
Yes! The platform used is compatible with live captions. Instructions to enable them will be provided when given session information.
-
The class will not be recorded.
If you feel like recording the class may be a helpful accommodation in your own learning, you may record the class for your own personal review.
To protect the privacy of other workshop members, any use of recordings other than personal review by the CEU participant is not allowed.

While there is no penalty for missing a free CEU, we ask that you do not sign up for sessions you are not planning on attending.
We use registration counts to determine when to close the class to new sign ups (and offer a new section instead).
