A certificate is awarded for successful completion of the course. This certificate is recognized by our School as well as by schools of social work throughout the New England Region. School of Social Work Policy on CECs: Any field instructor who wishes to receive CECs for the SIFI may do so by completing an application and paying a $15.00 recording fee at the last class. Each hour of completed classroom instruction equals one continuing education credit. Therefore, one CEC is issued for each contact hour. Anyone successfully attending and completing the full 16-hour seminar required of all first time field instructors is eligible to receive 16 CECs. Attendance is taken at each session. In order to receive a certificate you must attend 80% of the total number of hours of the seminar. |
