Rehabilitation Ethics Online Course
The emphasis of this online course is on real ethical dilemmas provided by people working in the field of vocational rehabilitation. Participants share an ethical dilemma and work through it using the relevant content provided in the course and the assistance of other participants. This approach allows participants to learn about other dilemmas faced in the profession and share their experience to help others. Participants also will explore their own values and perceptions of ethics to determine how that affects their ethical behavior.
Units:
- Basics of ethics and ethical principals
- Focus on the new CRC Code of Professional Ethics effective January 1, 2010
- Ethical decision making models
- A discussion of "microaggressions" to promote more culturally sensitive ethical behaviors (only for the 10 hour section)
Participants will work through these three content areas which will be provided in writing or in interactive Flash tutorials. Discussion activities include: reflect on personal values; present and find a resolution for an ethical dilemma; and examine code changes about confidentiality, forensic rehabilitation, receiving gifts, or the impact of technology. Most of the time spent on the course will involve writing responses to discussion activities and reading/responding to others' messages.
The overall objective for this training is to increase sensitivity to ethical problems that are work related and to enhance the practitioners' ethical reasoning ability. Thus, the content of this course will focus primarily on ethical awareness and ethical reasoning.
To accommodate as many people as possible, we offer two options:
- 5 hour option: This is for individuals who already have some ethics credits completed and only need a few more.
- 10 hour option: This is for individuals who want to complete all of their ethics credits at once. This course fulfills CRC's entire ethics requirement.
Dates: February 10 - March 17, 2011
Location: Online
