            Description

            The Education and Training Center is responsible for developing and implementing trainings, workshops, and community outreach activities. Trainings take various forms, including lecture and demonstration, formal continuing education workshops, and presentations from practitioners and agencies that work in collaboration with the Palm Beach County Youth Services Department. The goals of these trainings are to maintain awareness of recent empirical literature, to inform clinical practice with evidence based findings, and to develop skills in making professional case presentations. Many of the trainings offer continuing education credits because the Youth Services Department is an approved CE sponsor of the American Psychological Association (APA), the State of Florida Department of Health’s Board of Clinical Social Work, Marriage and Family Therapy, and Mental Health Counseling, and the Florida Department of Health’s Board of Nursing.
