The Post Qualifying framework provides professionally qualified
social workers with the opportunity to obtain recognition for
their continuing professional development within a UK-wide framework
of post qualifying education and training.
The framework delivers two nationally
recognised Awards in Social Work - the Post Qualifying Award (PQSW)
and the Advanced Award (AASW). These awards are developed on two
different and distinct levels of competence and are open to all
staff who hold a social work qualification recognised by the Social
Care Council.
The framework concentrates on the assessment of learning outcomes,
in other words, on the recognition of a worker's professional
competence as a result of learning. This means that various forms
of learning, from assessed courses to individual portfolio preparation,
can be used to provide the evidence of competence in particular
areas.
