Course overview
This course offers social workers the chance to develop core social work skills at an advanced level. It recognises the complexity with which social workers need to attend in 21st century social work and the emotionally distressing and challenging nature of the work. This course is taught in modules and students may take up to five years to complete the course.
Course outline
This course is offered as a credit accumulation model to give you maximum flexibility so that you can enrol onto individual modules as stand-alone credit-bearing CPD.
The modules are all optional meaning that you can pick those which interest you the most. However, you can only undertake the BIA module if you are a social worker working in a relevant setting. In order to receive the PgCert or PgDip, you will need to enrol onto the award programme To gain the full PgDip, you will need to successfully complete four taught modules from the list below. If you successfully complete two modules you may finish your studies at this point and take a Postgraduate Certificate as an exit award.
Who is the course for
This course is for you if you are a social worker, or work in the social care field, and wish to increase your CPD through a course that will provide you with theoretical frameworks and reflective, experiential learning that allow you to engage with the complexities of your role. You will also develop your capacities to work effectively in often, challenging environments.
