More Course Information

  • Why take this course?

    Many of those with progressive vision loss or legal blindness are not aware of training & support. Thus many with low vision or blindness be forced unnecessarily to lose their employment and independence. This is at a great cost to them, their families, and society. This is just not necessary, and as a trained professional with cultural competence CEUs can with confidence provide hope and help keep this from happening. In addition you can learn more about the ethical ways to provide Informed consent for any health care research and treatment and ethical conduct. Many codes of ethics: (CRCC® Certified Rehabilitation Counselors Certification ceu, ACA®, American Counselling Association ceu, APA® American Psychological Association CE, National Association of Social Workers ceu (NASW) Code of Ethics", American Nurses Association ceus (ANA) Code of Ethics for Nurses, and more) make it imperative that people are aware of what they are signing. The disconnected patient or customer is a liability to the healthcare professional. You will learn how to easily, and at low cost, make forms accessible.

  • What you can expect.

    Experiential exercises, real world experience and on topic case studies make the material understandable and allow practical application to your professional practice.
