Students gain skills in maintaining working relationships, developing multi-dimensional assessments, utilizing a lifespan perspective, differentially applying intervention strategies while considering the unique attributes of each client system. Students will conduct appropriate evaluations of practice interventions, ethical dilemmas, utilizing social work knowledge, values, and skills.
