It’s a priority of BCASW to support continuing competency by offering affordable, accessible and relevant professional development that meets changing practice and workforce needs.
Our annual Fall Conference has grown to become the foremost professional development event for social workers in BC.
Locally, our branches offer a wide array of educational events – guest speakers, workshops and seminars that members can attend at no charge or for a nominal fee. Check our site regularly to find out what’s scheduled in your area.
We know that geography, family obligations, finances and work schedules can make it difficult for people to attend in-person events. That’s why BCASW created its series of teleseminars, held throughout the year, so that members can access informative and stimulating educational programs from their home. Most of our teleseminars are a Members Only benefit, costing members nothing but the nominal teleconference toll charges.
