Technology has allowed for the simplification of our lives.  Supervision towards a certification or licensure requires a substantial effort on both the applicant and the supervisor.  Vidoesupervision is an excellent way to use technology while promoting one's professional growth.  Virginia is such a large state and VADOC employs persons from all corners.  The need for qualified sex offender treatment providers has never been greater or more obvious.  Taking steps to address the inherent logistical problems while maintaining the high standards is the right thing to do.  Face to face supervision should still be a component but many of the hours could be managed via video.  We have meetings across the state using video technology and incorporated this style of meeting to be fairly routine.  I fully support this petition.
