Course summary

The BA (Hons) Social Work Degree Apprenticeship is both an academic and practice-led programme that combines practice learning and development throughout key modules, enabling the apprentice to consolidate and apply new knowledge and concepts as they progress throughout the three years.

Successful completion of the apprenticeship programme means that applicants are eligible to apply for registration as a social worker on the register with Social Work England (SWE). During the apprenticeship, apprentices will work towards meeting the standards comprising specified requirements for behaviours, skills and knowledge across nine areas of work:

Professional values and ethics

Views of people who use services, carers, their families and communities

Evidence-based decision-making and analysis

Personal and professional development

Safe professional practice and safeguarding

Communication

Working with others

Recording and reporting

Use of technology

This course will also prepare you for your next stage, once qualified in the Assessed and Supported Year in Employment (ASYE).

Job Roles/
Occupations
Following succesful completion of the Social Work Apprenticeship route will enable you to apply for registration as a qualified social worker with Social Work England (SWE). Qualified Social Workers can work within statutory, private/independent and voluntary sector organisations. The generic nature of the course means that, on qualification, you can choose your preferred area of practice and, as a qualifying degree, it is recognised nationally. One of the benefits of a career in social work is the range of opportunities available. Whether you choose a career working with children and families, with older adults, people with learning or physical disabilities or in mental health services you will find a range of career paths available.

On successful completion of this Apprenticeship, apprentices will be awarded BA (Hons) Social Work and their Apprenticeship Certificate. At the end of the course, once all modules, placement hours and end point assessment have been passed and completed you will be eligible to apply for registration as a social worker on the register via Social Work England (SWE). The apprenticeship standard has been mapped to the Social Work England Education and Training Standards, the Professional Capability Framework, Social Work England Professional Standards and the Knowledge Skills Statement (KSS).
