Welcome Message
Congratulations as you approach the final stretch of your formal social work education: Field, a course without walls.
Field education, the signature pedagogy for social work education, provides an opportunity to demonstrate learning through practical experiences, integrating classroom knowledge into "real world" situations simultaneously exhibiting a growing knowledge of self illustrated through emerging professionalism, professional boundaries, and a teachable attitude. Strengthening your skill-set in the four social work core areas: Engage, Assess, Intervene, and Evaluate is crucial in your field education experience as an emerging social work professional committed to the social work adage "starting where the client is".
We encourage you to begin this final stretch by spending quality time familiarizing yourself with the field education feature of our social work website. This is our attempt to reduce the anxiety that is a natural aspect of your field education experience, while increasing the role of excitement and fun (yes, we said fun and field in the same sentence) through detailed information, a necessity as you take this pivotal journey.
