The Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers is pleased to announce that it will be holding its upcoming virtual Educational Forum on Wednesday October 27, 2021. The Educational Forum is part of the Glenda McDonald Educational Series.
Following the success of this year’s two-day virtual Annual Meeting and Education Day (AMED), which reached over 2,000 members and as part of the College’s ongoing efforts to increase equity and inclusion, this year’s Educational Forum will be hosted entirely online via livestream.
The College is pleased to have Tina Gandhi, MSW, RSW, as the keynote speaker for this year’s Forum. The keynote address will be based on accessibility and disability issues in social work and social service work practice. Social workers and social service workers can view Tina Gandhi’s presentation from her educational session at the College’s Annual Meeting and Education Day this summer on the College’s YouTube channel.
The College encourages employers to share this great educational opportunity with their social work and social service work staff members. Following the Educational Forum, College members will have access to a link to the Certificate of Participation which can be used towards their 2021 Continuing Competence Program (CCP).
Stay tuned for more information
