This positive book brings together current good practice in education and training for care professionals around a central theme of involving service users and improving the quality of their care. The contributors set out a strategy for the teaching of theory and practice to care professionals in the context of changing policy and practice in agencies and in higher education. Helpful guidance is offered to education and training providers in universities and agencies on the preparation of care professionals for the new millenium and beyond. Topics addressed within the book include: ? international comparisons ? research teaching ? the bridging of vocational, professional and academic frameworks ? user involvement ? assessing professional competence ? teaching anti-discriminatory practice. While drawing primarily from social work, this book takes an interprofessional approach and will be essential reading for all health and care education providers. Rachel Pierce and Jenny Weinstein have brought together academics, researchers and practitioners, to reflect with them - both positively and critically - on a broad range of contemporary educational developments, thus providing a sound analysis to shape future arrangements for quality professional education and training.
Rachel Pierce was previously the Assistant Director Education and Training at the Central Council for Education and Training in Social Work (CCETSW). Jenny Weinstein was acting Head of the London and South East Region of CCETSW before moving into the voluntary sector.
