Members of the PracticeWise Community,

The Fall 2017 updates to the PracticeWise information resources are now available online. The past six months were an eventful period for the PracticeWise team.

New Continuing Education Offerings

In addition to offering online learning courses at no cost, we recently began to offer continuing education versions of our courses at low cost. More than 30 courses are now available with more on the way. Our online course collection was also expanded to include a resource course for the Evidence-Based Services System Model. PracticeWise, LLC, is approved by the American Psychological Association to sponsor continuing education for psychologists. PracticeWise, LLC, maintains responsibility for this program and its content.

A Final Note

If you were satisfied with your services over the past few weeks, please give an extra shout out to our Florida-based central office team who survived Hurricane Irma and continued to provide services throughout the evacuation. We are glad that everyone stayed safe and are grateful that the losses were tolerable. Hopefully, the air conditioning will be back to normal before too much longer!

Best wishes,

The PracticeWise Team
