Social Work Field Education

The Social Work Department is now using InPlace, an internship management platform for B.S.W. and M.S.W. Students. Students will use InPlace for applications, time sheets, weekly supervision logs and evaluations.

We have provided access to the required applications and forms, so students can view them outside of the InPlace Student Platform.

InPlace

Students who have been accepted into the Education Program should invest in professional liability insurance and provide evidence of such to the social work field education director prior to beginning their field education experience.

The Field Education students who do not purchase malpractice insurance will not be allowed to meet with any clients or complete their field education.

The field education student must provide proof to the Field Education Director of such malpractice insurance, at the 1 million/3 million level, coverage prior to beginning their field education experience.

Professional Liability Insurance Options Available:

• NASW Insurance
• American Professional Agency Inc.

Each year Incoming Field Education Students have a Field Orientation that helps them understand the responsibilities and roles they will have as Field Education Students.

Students also have the opportunity to get real-life experience by interviewing with field agencies during our annual Field Fair.
