This book serves as an introductory reader for understanding a professional competencies framework through a new approach. It not only discusses what professional competencies are and why they are significant, but it also shows how to develop a professional competencies approach, measure and research competencies, and learn how to use them to empower professional identity and career development.
There has been growing interest to define the social work profession within a professional competencies framework. Professional competencies are considered in their complexity as a triangle of knowledge, skills and values. They are not solely a tool for education and practice, but they are also important for professional socialization and identity in social work. A professional competencies approach has been used to define standards and expectations for social workers-practitioners; it is an evaluation tool for formal education and lifelong learning programs, provides guidance for field practice and placements for social work students, and could be a frame for distinguishing levels of professional expertise.
The volume provides an up-to-date, comprehensive overview of a professional competencies approach in social work with 10 chapters organized in four sections:
- Part I: Understanding a Professional Competencies Approach, including Criticisms of the Competency-Based Education Approach
- Part II: Major Areas of Professional Competencies, including Leadership and Professional Socialisation
- Part III: Measuring Professional Competencies and Education Outcomes, including How to Conceptualise, Operationalise and Measure Professional Competencies in Social Work
- Part IV: Professional Competencies and Professional Development, including A Model of Holistic Competence in Social Work and the unique Professional Capabilities Framework
