SWK 102 - Ethics, Values, & Experiental Learning in Social Service Settings

2 Credit Hours
This three-credit hour course is designed to prepare students in entering into social service settings.  Experiential learning is at the core of several professional degrees and complementary fields of study. Understanding the ethics and values associated in working within social service settings, while enriching and exciting, is often challenging and requires advanced preparation.  For example, social workers address society’s most pressing social issues such as domestic violence/ community violence, health disparities, family separation/immigration, poverty, etc. which requires being mentally, emotionally, and psychologically prepared. This course will provide students some insights into working withs social service settings, some of the tasks/responsibilities that they most likely will encounter and support students with strategies to be successful.
