SUMMARY:Changing Practice through Data: A Measurement Based Strategy for Clinical Care
DESCRIPTION:This session highlights a forward-looking\, measurement-based strategy to support therapists in their clinical practice and improve service quality. Participants will learn practical tools for integrating outcome data into therapeutic decision-making\, helping to bridge the gap between direct clinical care and data-informed strategies.

By grounding outcome measures into clinical practice\, this session demonstrates how data can strengthen client engagement\, enhance the therapeutic alliance\, and support progress monitoring within treatment. This session draws on lessons learned during the implementation process and offers participants strategies to adapt in their own settings to create a culture where measurement-based care supports clinical excellence\, continuous quality improvement\, and is responsive to the evolving needs of clinical practice. \nLearning Outcomes \nAt the conclusion of this training\, you will be able to: \n\nIdentify the key components of measurement-based care (MBC) and how they enhance therapeutic effectiveness while preserving clinical judgment.\nApply strategies for integrating outcome measures into supervision and client sessions to strengthen engagement\, alliance\, and treatment planning.\nExamine tools that bridge clinical insights with outcome data to support progress monitoring and improve client outcomes.\n\nDelivery Method\nSynchronous interactive distance (live virtual) \nCost\n$30 \nCredit Hours\n1.5 (ACE) \nAccreditation \nUniversity of Kentucky College of Social Work\, Provider # 1377\, is approved as an ACE provider to offer social work continuing education by the Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB) Approved Continuing Education (ACE) program.
