Social Work Practicum I provides students with an opportunity to experience direct practice with individuals, groups, or communities. Practicum is intended to expose students to the complexity of practice issues related to work in human services and to view social issues from a social work perspective. During this first practicum experience students are expected to integrate learning from their first year courses with a focus on the application of social work skills, values and ethics. Students are challenged to examine how their social location influences their assessments of client situations and their work with clients or client groups. Students are expected to demonstrate a beginning understanding of social work as a distinct profession. Practicum seminars will be delivered using a blended delivery format, including both in-person and online meetings. Accreditation standards require that students are supervised by a Registered Social Worker resulting in tutorials that may be scheduled outside of regular class time. 

Prerequisite(s): A grade of C or higher in all of INTS 1240 , SLWK 1114,  and SLWK 1187.
