INTRODUCTION
These values guide the social work profession, a profession committed to the service of others as it seeks social justice. It is a profession that honors the dignity and worth of the person and the importance of human relationships. Social workers demonstrate integrity and competence as they work with diverse client populations.
As a social work student, these same values guide your learning, just as they would your practice. This week, you explore how these values, as expressed in an ethical code, apply to practice.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Students will:
Describe professional ethics and NASW code of ethics
Describe ethical standards in social work practice
Compare licensure requirements in different states
Analyze benefits of title protection and licensure
Identify agency and social worker for agency visit
STATE LICENSURE
Licensure represents the ability to practice under the title of social worker. Each state regulates the profession and sets the requirements to be licensed to practice in that state. Even when regulations vary, all states require licensed social workers to have graduated from a CSWE–accredited program and pass the national ASWB exam. This assures that those who receive the title of “social worker” have met the criteria developed to demonstrate proficiency in meeting the demands associated with the profession. This is referred to as “title protection,” and protecting the title means that individuals not appropriately trained for the profession cannot call themselves a social worker.
In this Discussion, you research the licensure requirements in your state and share them with your colleagues. Sharing the various states’ requirements can be useful should you be planning a relocation, or if you have ever worked in this or a related profession in another state.
TO PREPARE
Research the criteria for assuming a social work license in your state or country. You will want to research the regulations put forth by your state’s licensing board.
Consider the benefits offered by title protection and maintenance of licensure standards.
