As a registered Social Worker, you will need to understand and evaluate complex situations, where nothing may be as it first appears and what you are told may be limited or misleading. This module will enable you to develop your skills in using observation and explore the multi-faceted factors that impact our understanding, interpretation and analysis of information, including that from non-verbal, verbal and written sources.
You will also develop your awareness of the impact of your identity and experience, and the sense that you make of the situations that you are working in. It will also help you develop your ability to use theory to inform your analysis and decision-making processes and address the relevant Professional Capabilities Framework (PCF) practice requirements and the threshold requirements for entry into social work.
