You will develop your practice framework as a professional social worker, critically reflect on your practice, and integrate coursework learning with your field placement experiences. Upon completing this unit, you will demonstrate the ability to integrate theoretical knowledge with practical skills, critically reflect on practice, formulate a practice framework, and meet the Australian Association of Social Workers' practice standards for professional social workers.
