SW 503 Generalist Practice I

Generalist Practice I overviews skills commonly used in generalist social work to engage with clients, conduct an assessment, identify the problem's source, match an intervention to the problem, implement a change strategy, evaluate the success of the intervention and make adjustments as needed, and positively terminate with a client. The course strengthens students' engagement and assessment skills by requiring them to conduct interviews and assessments with individuals and families. By videotaping these sessions and providing students with faculty and peer feedback, students master new skills to develop a strong foundation of generalist knowledge and skills designed to build versatility and confidence when serving diverse client groups in a variety of practice settings.
