EASWL Workshops: Assessing and Evidencing Values and Ethics

This interactive workshop will use a mixture of presentation and group work to consider how we can assess and evidence values and ethics in practice when working with social work learners.

This workshop is suitable for all practitioners involved in enabling and assessing social work learners such as experienced Practice Educators in need of a refresher/update on current practice,  newly qualified PEs and PEPS trainees, Onsite Supervisors.

Please note that the majority of the content will be relevant for ASYE assessors and Mentors/OSS of apprentices, however, assessment frameworks, such as PCF levels will focus on student levels and not ASYE level. The workshop will not address social work (integrated degree) apprenticeship standards as Kingston University provides separate workshops for apprenticeship mentors and OSS of apprentices.

Learning outcomes

• A refresher of values and ethics in Social Work & what a Social Work Student/Learner is expected to show capability on during their placement
• Methods of assessing students’ understanding, development and use of values and ethics in practice 
• Practical tools you can use for discussion, development and assessment of values and ethics
