Continuous Professional Development (CPD)
The ACSB promotes lifelong learning and continuous professional development (CPD) in the field of Sexological Bodywork® and Somatic Sex Education.
CPD courses recommended by the Institute for the Study of Somatic Sex Education
Post graduate courses from the Institute for the Study of Somatic Sex Education
Somatic Sexology Webinars at the Somatic Sex Educators' Association
The ACSB seeks to encourage the further development of the profession and it's practitioners. We ask that members seriously consider taking continued professional development each year when able. The Association recommends that members retain a record of supervision and professional development. The Association may request evidence of supervision and professional development in the event of a complaint or other proceeding against a member, or otherwise at the discretion of the current executive committee.
