1- Free On-line Leadership Training for Child Welfare Supervisors
We are happy to share with you a wonderful learning opportunity for child welfare supervisors: the Leadership Academy for Supervisors (LAS). This training is part of the National Child Welfare Workforce Institute, a
member of the T/TA network of the Children's Bureau.
Attached is a one-page flier that provides more information and a link to the National Child Welfare Workforce Institute website.
The LAS is an exciting resource for supervisors in public, private and tribal child welfare agencies that provide child welfare services. This is a unique professional development opportunity to enhance leadership skills and network with others through regional peer networking forums. Certificates and/or CEUs are available for those who complete the training requirements.
2- New Practice Update – Enrolling in Medicare as a Clinical Social Work Provider
For your information, a new practice update is available for members, Enrolling in Medicare as a Clinical Social Work Provider. It is located at the following link: http://www.socialworkers.org/assets/secured/documents/practice/clinical/WKF-MISC-38710.ClinicalSW.pdf.
Because Medicare has made changes in its enrollment process, this practice update is a replacement for the practice update, Becoming a Medicare Provider, which is outdated and should be deleted from your files. You may use the practice update in your print and online media products. Please contact Mirean Coleman at mcoleman@naswdc.org if you have any questions about it.
