Live Interactive Webinar
Date & Time: Saturday, July 12, 2025 at 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM EDT
Format: Interactive Synchronous Distance Preferra Learn LMS / Zoom
Continuing Education: 1.5 CE Ethic Hours
Target Audience: Social Workers
Professionals using telehealth have reported fewer no-show appointments and improved work-life balance.
However, providing services via telehealth requires social workers to understand and comply with state requirements, their Code of Ethics, the Standards for Technology in Social Work Practice, and HIPAA compliance.
This webinar will address those areas and share valuable risk management lessons learned over the past few years. Attendees will also review complex case studies illustrating the foundational elements needed for a healthy telehealth practice.
This 90-minute, live, interactive webinar will provide actionable information and guidance that you can implement immediately in your current practice setting.
Once you register, you will receive a confirmation email with detailed instructions on how to join the live webinar and, after the webinar, how to obtain your continuing education certificate.
On Friday, July 11, 2025 at noon EDT, you will have access to the webinar disclaimers, general information and materials. Immediately following the webinar, you can complete the evaluation and obtain your certificate- all in just a few minutes! This webinar will be recorded and made available at a later date.

Learning Objectives
- Apply and monitor the legal and ethical telehealth requirements for their state(s) of practice to deliver effective professional services, protect clients, and reduce career risk.
- Develop and implement (or review, if already in place) their telehealth protocol —incorporating guidelines and principles from the NASW, ASWB, CSWE, & CSWA Standards for Technology in Social Work Practice and the Code of Ethics.
- Design and implement a periodic evaluation process to comply with HIPAA requirements for telehealth services and proactively address potential breaches.
Course Completion & CE Information
Social workers must attend the entire webinar and complete a course evaluation to receive CE credit.
All states accept ACE providers except New York.
New York does not accept ASWB ACE provider or course/conference approval. Preferra is already in the process of applying for approval as a Continuing Education Provider for LMSWs and LCSWs in New York. We anticipate receiving approval early in the second half of 2025.
Even when a social work board accepts courses offering ASWB ACE credit, licensees are responsible for determining whether courses meet the CE requirements in their jurisdictions. States and provincial regulatory boards have the final authority to determine whether any individual course may be accepted for credit.
