Objectifs et capacités de apprenant.es

Second-year Social Service Worker students are ready to virtually support individuals, families, and communities through delivering social service programming to clients. As a “professional in training”, our students are ready to help out in various ways, developing their skills, knowledge, and attitudes that are necessary to enter the field as a social service work practitioner. We are looking for placement sites where students can apply in practice the concepts and theories learned in the classroom. The students have learned in the classroom about many aspects of social service work, including interpersonal skills, counseling, group facilitation, and case management. Please note that all of our students will have their Vulnerable Sector Screening completed.

The students are available for 224 hours of unpaid, for-credit work experience beginning in January, 2021.
