Course description

This course is last offered in 2010. It will be discontinued from 2011 onwards. Maximum quota of 40 students. Enrolment is open to the first 40 students who enrol in this course on mySI-net.
The course aims to provide students with advanced knowledge, critical reflection and practice skills in group work as it relates to social work. It recognises that group work has the potential to improve people's power and control over their lives. Social workers therefore require skills in group work facilitation. It therefore will equip students with the necessary values and knowledge to undertake this form of intervention in a diversity of contexts.
