This program is designed to strengthen clinicians’ ethical decision-making skills in the context of today’s evolving geopolitical and sociocultural landscape. Using a combination of lecture, discussion, and experiential casework, participants will examine the practical application of ethical codes related to the ethical principles of responsibility to clients, confidentiality, and nonmaleficence.Topics include distinguishing between ethical mandates and legal requirements, analyzing the role of clinician judgment in ethically complex situations, and applying frameworks to navigate conflicts between ethical codes and external pressures (e.g., subpoenas, reproductive and immigration rights, documentation practices). Through direct instruction, interactive small-group exercises, and large-group discussion, participants will strengthen their ability to protect client rights and uphold professional standards across diverse populations and present-day contexts.This program meets the requirements for 5 hours of Ethics Continuing Education and fulfills the GA Composite Board’s ethics training criteria.

The “All or Nothing Rule” states that a program participant must attend the workshop in its entirety and complete an evaluation in order to receive any CE credit. No partial CE credit may be given for attending part of a workshop or less than all scheduled days if continued over more than one day. Short absences that are required by a participant’s professional or personal urgent situation may be approved by the workshop provider and/or monitor. The participant must return to the workshop without delay. Abuse of this consideration is grounds for denial of the CE certificate. Arriving late or leaving early is not an acceptable excuse by current standards."  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/18c28550-b2c8-11f0-bc3b-55cfec1e4694-rimg-w572-h740-dcfefdf0-gmir.jpg AgendaIntroduction Diff erentiation between Ethical Codes &amp; Legal ResponsibilitiesStrategies for Navigating ConflictsIntersection of Ethical Rules &amp; Responsibilities with Geopolitical Changes Break  (45min)Specific Review of Ethical Codes Specific Review of Discipline-Specific Ethical Responsibilities Closing DiscussionCompletion of Evaluations &amp; CE Certificate Information
