How does the Practice Teaching Award link to the PQ Framework?
Practice Teaching Award programmes are examples of accredited courses that cover some of the requirements of the PQSW Award.
If you have completed one of these programmes you will be able to claim up to 60 professional credits towards a Post Qualifying Award in Social Work (PQSW).
Successful completion of a Practice Teaching Programme provides sufficient evidence of your skills in relation to requirements PQ5 and PQ6 and cores a) and b) in relation to these requirements.
Further work, possibly in the form of an individual portfolio, would enable anyone who holds this Award to complete a full PQSW Award.
The Practice Teaching Award does not evidence any of the requirements of the Advanced Award in Social Work (AASW). |
