Information for Practicum Educators and Liaisons

Students complete their practicum education by participating in supervised practicum experiences at agencies or institutions that have entered into a contractual arrangement with the School of Social Work. We are affiliated with more than 600 agencies, some with multiple sites, providing a variety of social work settings.

Practicum education allows students to apply the theories, skills and values they learn in class in practice settings. Through practicum education, the foundation of knowledge that students gain through their coursework comes alive through real-world experiences, preparing them for the social work profession.
