Fundamentals of Social Work Practice
3 Credits
Fundamental of Social Work Practice is a foundational course in the practice sequence. This course introduces the social work generalist practice approach. Historical and contemporary values, social purposes, knowledge, and assumptions, which underpin this framework, will be presented and linked conceptually to an ecological and systems perspective for contemporary practice. Social work values, ethics, priorities, roles, and functions will receive primary attention. A strengths-empowerment based practice framework with diverse groups and systems will be emphasized and analyzed.
