The "Spotlight on Employee Assistance" is a roundup of bit-sized news items relevant to EA. This month, we learn about How AI can address employees' fears of coronavirus, 5 signs of a toxic workplace and how to fix it, and navigating the emotional side of retirement.

This course provides CEAP candidates with the knowledge and skills necessary to successfully evaluate questions on the CEAP exam. Facilitators will review the key concepts of each EAP Job Performance Domain and provide insight into test design. Participants will be presented with practice test questions and strategies for identifying key words and eliminating distractions. The questions cover material consistent with a broad overview of the profession from multiple perspectives and EA service models. Participants will be challenged to assess questions with best practices in mind rather than from the point of view of their own EA program's policies and procedures. The course consists of 3 two hour sessions given February 26th, March 4th and March 11th, from 2 - 4 PM, ET.
