The social work program has designed a straight-forward assessment plan to determine how well the competencies are being met. There are two levels of measurement that operate within the plan- faculty scores, measuring student’s performance as evident by various work throughout the curriculum and field instructor scores, measuring student performance in a real practice setting through the final evaluation in field. In addition to the t faculty perspective on competency, the competencies and related behaviors are assessed in the field by the student’s field instructor. Each competency is represented by the associated behaviors and further operationalized by specific activities or tasks practiced in the field of social work under the supervision of a trained field instructor. The field final evaluation assesses each competency using a 1-9 score that represents how well the student is demonstrating the associated behavior through activities and tasks.
