This one-hour recorded asynchronous distance learning course reviews the important components of eating disorder identification and treatment. Eating disorders are increasingly common in the general population.

The course is composed of a webinar-style video presentation with a corresponding post-test and course evaluation. Participants must complete both and receive a pass score of at least 80% to receive a certificate of completion.

This course is appropriate for social workers, mental health professionals, and professional counselors.
