Clinical Supervision, when properly implemented by competent Clinical Supervisors, improves client care, develops clinical skills, and improves the knowledge and professionalism of clinical personnel. It is also paramount in imparting and maintaining ethical standards in the addictions profession.
This 16-hour training (12 hours of live interactive training through Zoom + 4 hours of professional development plan assignments), combined with the 14-hour online “Clinical Supervision Foundations I” training, will meet the 30-hour Clinical Supervision training requirement for the Advanced Counselor and Master Counselor status, as referenced in the OASAS Substance Use Disorder Scope of Practice. This training recognizes the crucial role that Clinical Supervision holds as the cornerstone of performance improvement at both the program and client level.
Due to the new guidelines set forth by OASAS (below), we need your supervisor to sign off on your registration, confirming that you meet the requirements. We will email the form to you. You must also complete "Clinical Supervision Foundations I” and email your certificate to us. The certificate and the completed form must be submitted no later than Wednesday, April 16th .
New guidelines from OASAS...
"Pre-requisites for attending CSFII have been updated to include a CASAC with a minimum of a bachelor’s degree. In addition, all registrants must be current clinical supervisors or currently on a career path to be in the position within one year. Registered individuals must provide proof that they meet either criterion by having their current supervisor sign off on their training registration, in addition to providing a copy of their completion certificate for the 14-hour CSFI online training."
We will email the Zoom links for the training after receiving your certificate and the completed form.
