SWK 606 - Supervision in Social Work

3 Credit Hours
This course focuses on the role and function of the social work supervisor in human service agencies. Social workers in supervisory positions are increasingly accountable for the clinical and macro practices of their subordinates and, in addition, have responsibility for effective and efficient function of the administrative components of their units, departments or groups of employees. Topics include the supervisory relationship and learning styles. Social workers with a graduate MSW degree are often called upon to fill supervisory roles in human service agencies. Ultimately, the supervisor is responsible for the quality of services delivered to clients/consumers in the community. This course is designed to help prepare social workers for the challenges of supervision and administrative roles with human service agencies.

Prerequisite(s): Prerequisite: completion of foundation year course work or permission of advisor and instructor.
