1 September 2010
The Care Council is arranging a one day national Forum for social work students. This will include representatives of social work degree students from 8 social work degree courses in Wales and representatives of social workers on post qualifying courses. The aim of the Forum is to promote communication and discussion between the Care Council and social work students about social work education and training. The agenda will include:
- informing students about the Care Council and its work;
- facilitating discussion on key areas such as social work education and training; career pathways; the Code of Practice; conduct related matters and the funding of social work training; and
- obtaining views on developing the concept of a student forum.
The Forum will be held on:
Thursday 21 October 2010, 10.30am – 3.30pm
Newport YMCA Conference Centre, Mendalgief Road, Newport which is a short bus ride from Newport Central Station.

Please note places will be allocated in discussion with your social work course leader.
