SWO 150 - Professional Writing Laboratory for Social Workers

The ability to communicate clearly and appropriately through written word and oral presentation to small groups are essential components of a social worker’s professional responsibility, and will comprise a significant proportion of day-to-day professional practice. In addition, as part of preparation for practice, social work education has a significant volume of written and presentation assignments. This required five week writing workshop offers both immediate and long-term benefits to social work students. It is designed to reinforce knowledge and skills in composition, grammar, and oral presentation that you have acquired through your previous educational experiences to advance the specialized skills needed in professional social work.
