Co-sponsor an Event with NASW-Nevada
The National Association of Social Workers, Nevada
Chapter has developed a procedure to work with organizations dedicated to providing quality education for Nevada social workers and who wish to provide CEUs.
Organizations who have not yet received approval via the Nevada Board of Examiners for Social Work but also wish to work with the Nevada Chapter of NASW are able to maximize the benefits
of our co-sponsorship policy. CEU approval can be a timely and costly process for many. For
those organizations that offer few workshops each year, or even for
those who may have gotten Board approval but do not have advertising
dollars in their budget for their programs, co-sponsorship with the
NASW-Nevada Chapter is the answer.
Having the NASW-Nevada Chapter co-sponsor your
continuing education event/conference provides your organization with
many benefits not offered by other organizations in the social work
field. Since NASW is the largest, most recognized name in the
profession, we can connect you with social workers statewide
in all fields of practice.
Co-sponsorship with the NASW-Nevada Chapter takes
approximately one week to review applications for approval (provided
applicant gives complete information requested in application).
IMPORTANT NOTE: The
NASW-Nevada Chapter reserves the right to reject all applications for
events that don't meet Nevada Law and the NASW-NV's and/or Nevada State Board of Examiners rules and regulations for continuing education.
