Leslie Sherlin, PhD and Robert E. Longo, LPC
The focus of this webinar is to go beyond the basics of understanding the certification boards’ and professional organizations’ code of conduct with an emphasis on Scope of Practice. It is aimed at a deeper dive into models of ethical theories and to provide attendees with foundational knowledge of the primary theories and the ability to apply professional ethics models and standards of practice as they apply to the helping professions and specifically those providing peripheral biofeedback, neuromodulation and qEEG services.
Not only will this workshop provide deeper insight into the theoretical, through case examples and real world examples the application of theory will be clearly demonstrated such that the attendee can critically evaluate the uniqueness of their own scenarios in real time. Many clinicians and practitioners of qEEG and Neuromodulation are board certified in Neurofeedback by BCIA and must attend training in ethics and standards of practice for renewal of their BCIA certification as well as individual license requirements per state regulations. This workshop is designed to fulfill those requirements and will address scope of practice concerns that face neuromodulation service providers.
