Ethics for School Psychologists: Challenges and Opportunities

This session will focus on the ways the National Association of School Psychologists’ 2020 Principles for Professional Ethics address ethical responsibilities of school psychologists. A problem-solving approach to resolving ethical dilemmas will be discussed that are relevant to practice in the current climate, the intersection of law, procedure and unspoken rules, and other related issues raised by practitioners throughout the state. Seasoned practitioners should be prepared to learn and take away tools to make your professional functioning more ethical and just.

Course Objectives:

1. Apply a problem-solving model to address ethical issues. 
2. Understand various sources of influence that can contribute to ethical dilemmas, particularly related to equity, access, social justice and anti-racist policies and actions. 
3. Apply evolving standards and principles pertaining to different scenarios in the ever changing school and community environments.
