  • Provide site, agency, and community orientation.
  • Collaborate with the student, any task supervisors, and the Director of Field Education to develop an individualized learning contract that addresses CSWE competencies, MSW program outcomes, and student learning interests.
  • Provide constructive feedback throughout the internship experience, including mid-year and end-of year grade recommendations, reviewed with both the student and the Field Education faculty.
  • Develop, in conjunction with the Field Education team, a plan to address any identified performance concerns.
  • Assist students in integrating practicum learning with the broad signature perspective of the social work profession and course content.
  • Review and approve weekly timesheets in Sonia.
  • Participate in training sessions, orientations, workshops, and other meetings conducted by the Director of Field Education or other faculty as appropriate, in the Department of Social Work and Equitable Community Practice.

See Field Education Manual for more detailed policies and procedures.

  • Valid licensure (LMSW, LCSW, LICSW) with a minimum of two years.
  • Physical ability to perform essential functions of the position, with or without reasonable accommodation.
