We are here to INSPIRE, SUPPORT and ENCOURAGE human service professionals to engage in LIFELONG LEARNING! We help you meet staff training needs, enhance services to clients by providing evidence-based, best and emerging practices; and support you in learning how to build your organizational capacity. Our philosophy is based on the linked propositions that a professional degree is just the beginning of knowledge, and that lifelong learning through workshops, certificate programs and integrated supervision will ensure the necessary expansion and currency of that knowledge. Great practitioners and administrators never stop learning! We are part of the University at Buffalo School of Social Work, ranked as one of the top schools of social work in the country. At the Office of Continuing Education, we are dedicated to creating training programs designed to assist the human service professionals who help people heal from a wide range of challenging life circumstances and diagnoses. We care deeply about providing training that facilitates the enhancement of professional skills and builds organizational capacity. From front line staff to executive directors, this is where professionals learn from the best. Director: Lesa L. Fichte, LMSW
