Abstract: The author reports on a workshop presented at the Computers in Social Work Education & Training Conference which discussed a range of Information Technologies (some more than ten years old, some very much more recent) which offer a number of opportunities for the social work profession. The National Institute for Social Work (NISW) is making use of these technologies in support of its aim of 'raising standards insocial work and social care.' The workshop reviewed the use of on-line databases, cd-roms and the Internet by NISW to this end.
