Module 9: Child Development
(1 day – 6 hours)

This workshop enhances the Child Welfare Professionals understanding of “normal” child developmental milestones and applies this knowledge to the assessment of individual children’s needs. The understanding will enhance the Child Welfare Professionals ability to accurately identify potential developmental problems and know the criteria to be met to support recommendations for assessment and/or expert services. The Child Welfare Professional will also be introduced to the Child and Adolescent Resource Book as a guide for making assessments. This workshop is eligible for 6 Continuing Education Credit Hours (CEU) for LSW, LCSW, LPC, and LMFT.
