misconduct; boundaries; conflicts of interest; legal obligations, the duty to warn and report;
handling addiction; and termination. Participants will have the opportunity to process a variety of

EVIDENCE LEVEL CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
Instructors for workshops have been asked to provide information regarding the levels of research based evidence behind their content.
Please be aware that while the ideal standards for evidence based practice are Levels A and B, there are many approaches and treatments for
which research has not yet been done at the A and B level. Therefore, one or more of the other levels will apply to the content. Many workshops
provide content that shares multiple treatment methods, and one or more levels will be listed. The sentence at the end of the workshop
description identifies the applicable levels. Their definitions are listed below. These classification levels are one system used by the Agency for
Healthcare Research and Quality to rate evidence.
Level A: randomized, controlled clinical trials
Level B: well designed clinical studies without randomization or placebo comparison
Level C: service and naturalistic clinic studies combined with clinical observations, which are sufficiently compelling
to warrant use of the treatment technique or follow the specific recommendation
Level D: long standing and wide-spread clinical practice that has not been subjected to empirical tests
Level E: long standing practice by circumscribed groups of clinicians that has not been subjected to empirical tests
Level F: recently developed treatment that has not been subjected to clinical or empirical tests
