GRADUATE VIEW
Positive experiences at the University of
Chichester have helped to develop my confidence
as a social worker. So much so, that I returned
to the University to undertake the Post
Graduate Child Care Award and I'm now able to
offer placements to University of Chichester
students. I'd recommend the University to those
who are looking to undertake a degree and want
to feel valued and supported by their university.

Work Practitioner
SOCIAL WORK BA (HONS)
This course is aimed at people who wish to
become professionally-qualified social workers,
eligible for registration with the Health and Care
Professions Council on graduation. The course
content will build on strengths highlighted by
students, such as a carefully-structured induction
programme designed to prepare you for a wide
range of experiences and learning opportunities.
There will be an emphasis on a building block
approach to social work skills, methods, ethics and
values. Individual support is provided through a
structured tutorial programme which will enable
you to link social work theories to practice.
