A Study of the Relevance between Social Work and Indispensable Specialty for Certified Social Worker
Get PDFoai:kinwu.repo.nii.ac.jp:00000100P(論文)The certified social worker (CSW) has a wide range of spesialty. But the specialty is notnecessarily defined clearly at present. In fact newly-made qualification of care manager, whichwas introduced by the enforcement of the law of social insurance for long-term care system, hasmade it more difficult to distinguish the specialty of CSW from that of others. In specialized welfare education emphasis tends to be on passing qualifying examination forCSW rather than making a profound study of its specialty even in welfare universities wherestudents are trained as CSW. As a result, it is probable that most students will graduate fromuniversities without having what is called specialty. Considering these things mentioned above, the question which we must ask is what is thespecialty required for a CSW and how it should be, to which little attention has been given so far. This paper is intended to investigate of the specialty of CSW on the basis of the questionnairesurvey given to our welfare unversity freshmen. In other words, the aim of this paper is toexamine how the students studying welfare realize their specialty and to show how theirconsciousness of welfare is biased.A good place to start is to focus attention on the stereotypes students have about specialty ofwelfare. Here we fined out three typical ones : First, they are more interested in geriatric welfareand children's welfare and less interested in low-income bracket welfare ; secondly, they are moreinterested in direct practice ; finally, they give more weight to the practical subjects andseminars than any other subjects; The findings of this investigation also read us to explore a little further into the possibilityabout how properly we can educate students for professional CSW in the course of social welfare.departmental bulletin pape
