ASWB is taking all developments concerning the coronavirus (Covid-19) very seriously and will continue to closely monitor the situation. There are no plans to postpone or cancel upcoming ASWB meetings or trainings. Registrations at this point in time are similar to previous years. We will continue to monitor the situation and of course will be in discussion with health authorities and ASWB leadership. ASWB will work to ensure the highest possible degree of hygiene, safety and medical care at upcoming meetings. The health and safety of all our attendees is our highest priority.
