Field EducationManualSocial Work ProgramMinot State University500 University Avenue WestMinot, North Dakota 58707Printed Summer 2008PrefaceThe Field Education Manual has undergone significant revisions in an attempt to respond to Field Instructors changing work experience. As budgets have decreased, staff cuts have resulted in fewer social workers employed who must respond to larger numbers of clients negatively affected by these same federal budget cuts. To respond to requests that the Manual be more “user-friendly,” the Manual has been “down-sized.” When I began this process, the Field Education Manual was over 100 pages long, and it now ends at page 35. The paragraphs of professional language which once existed have been replaced with numbered lists, or bulleted sentences with specific information. The duplication of information that exists was seen as necessary so that all information that is needed could be accessed from the Table of Contents under a specific heading. Having it on-line, and available to you on your computer also allows you to use your “Find” command to take you directly to the places where your query word is mentioned. I admit the most challenging part of this revision has been my on-going battle to enter the world of the 21st century. My computer knowledge and skills have been challenged, and I will continue to try to improve the visual presentation of this Manual.In several instances, Field Instructors and Field students are referred to on-line sources for information that formerly existed within the Manual, such as the Accreditation Standards from the Council on Social Work Education, as well as the National Association of Social Workers Code of Ethics. The Manual begins with a description of the Social Work Program so that Field Instructors know the mission and objectives of the Program, and have some idea of the classes the students have taken prior to coming to the field agency. The remainder of the Manual is an attempt to have the Field Education process described in the chronological steps taken to enter and complete Field Education. All forms are available within the Manual at the end in the Appendices.The Field Education Manual is seen as a dynamic, changing document, in concert with the Field Education class, which must also be dynamic and changing with the agencies in which students are placed. If you have comments, suggestions for improvement, or you find errors or something missing in the Manual, please call Deb DeWitz, Field Coordinator at 858-4259, or email me at . I invite your comments and suggestions, and welcome your calls at any time.Table of ContentsDESCRIPTION OF THE SOCIAL WORK PROGRAM4I.
