CE Course Description

The clinical supervisor serves an essential role in ensuring that behavioral health professionals are operating within the standards of practice as well as being able to identify when one is not performing adequately.  Additionally, supervisors are committed to upholding the ethical principles and standards of their professions, adhering to state and federal statutes regulating clinical practice, complying with relevant education and training standards, and practicing competency-based supervision.
