Abstract

The better the education and training of social workers, the better the outcomes for users and carers. The Social Care Institute for Excellence (SCIE) is supporting the new degree in social work by providing a series of reviews on the best ways of educating and training social workers.
Teaching and learning of communication skills is a core social work skill, and this review assists social work educators and students by examining the different approaches to this critical aspect of social work education.
Other reviews in this series will focus on the teaching and learning of assessment, of law in social work, of partnership working, of interprofessional working and of human growth and behaviour.
