WELF14013  Social Work Theory & Practice IV

This final social work core course adds greater depth to all prior learning within the program. In this course students will articulate their own personal framework for social work practice with a particular emphasis upon the ability to value, think and act critically as professionals. This course draws together many of the field placement experiences, providing students with a measure of the competencies and gaps in these learnings. Participants will be encouraged to assess their own learning needs to identify further resources or skills required in preparation for life long learning in the field. Finally, learning in this course will provide graduates with a complex analysis of the purpose and place of social work as a critical profession in the pursuit of social justice in Australian society and internationally.
