It is essential for social workers to keep pace with rapidly evolving ethical and legal standards governing online and distance practice.

Dr. Frederic Reamer will discuss recent technology-related updates to the NASW Code of Ethics; new technology standards adopted jointly by the NASW, ASWB, CSWE, and Clinical Social Work Association; and relevant statutes and regulations.
