Upcoming Live Virtual Events:

NOTE: Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, all in-person events have been canceled or postponed. The chapter is focusing on providing live virtual events until it is safe for attendees to start meeting again in person. We recognize that virtual learning is not for everyone, and we are committed to returning to presenting quality in-person CEU courses when it is possible to do so safely.

NASW-IL was successful in our efforts to advocate for waiver of the in-person CEU requirements by IDFPR due to the COVID-19 pandemic. You may now utilize any mixture of in-person, live virtual, or virtual trainings to reach your 30-hour CEU requirement. Please note this change will apply to the current 2019–2021 LSW/LCSW renewal cycle only. Read more here.

Recorded CE Trainings

NASW-Illinois Chapter has teamed up with chapters from around the US to offer hundreds of CE courses in a variety of formats—webinars, webcasts, podcasts, presentations, and more. All courses offered through this program are accredited by either the national NASW office or a state chapter. Either way, you get discounts as an NASW member!

For attendees outside of Illinois, please note that NASW accreditation does not imply automatic acceptance by all state boards. Individuals should check with their state licensing board on whether a specific program will be accepted for continuing education purposes. All courses in the Social Work Online CE Institute are accepted by IDFPR and will count toward your Illinois LSW and LCSW renewal requirements.
