Skill Development for Generalist Practice by Christina E. Newhill, Elizabeth A. Mulvaney, and Bobby F. Simmons offers an array of competency-building exercises addressing foundational social work knowledge as well as skills and values across micro, mezzo, and macro levels of practice. Designed to be actively used during class time, exercises embrace the diverse range of clients encountered by social workers in various practice settings and reflect a commitment to serving those who are the most vulnerable, at risk, disadvantaged, and marginalized from society.

A basic textbook for social work practice courses at the undergraduate and post-graduate level that provides a generalist and problem-solving orientation. The book seeks to establish a "task-centered" methodology -a structured, short-term, problem-solving approach -applicable across systems at five levels of practice: the individual, the family, the group, organizations, and communities. Each section discusses pretreatment considerations right through to termination. A numbering system helps the reader follow particular topics and checklists, questions for consideration, and practice exercises help students monitor their understanding and skill development.

Designed for the generalist practice course, this book uses students' own experiences rather than abstract discussion to build competency and professional identity. Full of rich case examples and exercises, the book lets students visualize and carry out skills in an applied, experimental way. It breaks down each practice skill into subcomponents, allowing students to consciously build up their capabilities as part of a lifelong learning process. Social work students will benefit from this presentation of the core knowledge, techniques, and values essential to the effective practice of social work.

Looks at a wide range of important general practice issues relating to professional and practice development and quality improvement, under the broad themes of teaching, learning and leadership.

Current challenges to the legitimacy of expert knowledge has caused professional control over knowledge, autonomy at work, orientation toward public service, and social status to have declined.
