Field Placement I & Seminar
Description
In this course, students will be able to observe and practice their knowledge and skills in a social service-related agency practice. Students will work under the supervision of a professional staff person, have the opportunity to observe social services procedures and practices, and take part in developing professional relationships with clients based on the profession's values and ethics. The student is guided and evaluated by an agency supervisor and a faculty supervisor, who work together to provide a constructive learning experience for the student. Students will also be expected to maintain a record of their placement activities through the submission of a learning plan, reflective journals and other documentation. Students will participate in a monthly seminar where they will discuss challenges and opportunities that arise in field practice, and integrate learning acquired from academic courses with practical experiences. The seminar component transitions the student to professional Social Service Worker and highlights what is required to be successful in the field.
