Advanced Field Instruction - Addiction I

Catalog description

This course is designed for students in the post-MSW program leading to an Addiction Certification. This field course is designed to integrate the professional experiences of students who have/or will practice social work in an addictions agency with the unique knowledge and skills required by this setting. Students, in conjunction with the School of Social Work and their field instructors, design a unique learning experience that allows them to transfer skills developed in other settings to the addictions arena and to learn additional knowledge and skills necessary for providing addictions-specific services. Permission of the School Social Work Coordinator required. Open to MSW post-graduate students only.
