Synopsis

The first year of practice can be a particularly challenging time for NQSWs. The Assessed and Supported year in Employment (ASYE) is primarily concerned with supporting NQSWs to establish you on the first rung of your professional career. The expectation is that knowledge and skills gained in qualifying education are consolidated and that new knowledge and skills are developed in practice relevant to the employment setting.

Focusing in on the transition from study to work and what professionalism looks like in practice, this book has been designed to help you get a true sense of what it’s like to work within today’s health care system. It’s been written in conjunction with Social Work Managers, Service Users and NQSWs themselves to provide a detailed and balanced assessment of what it’s like to work as a social worker and tests you on key areas you’ll be assessed on throughout the ASYE.
