An accessible book for all social work apprentices, covering key elements of the apprenticeship journey and the fundamentals of social work education. This is the perfect text for both apprentices returning to learning and those more familiar with higher education. I would thoroughly recommend.

This is a holistic guide to the social work apprenticeship journey, which covers all you need to know and answers questions that come up again and again – with a little extra too. There are lots of reflection and tips on how to make the most of the learning – fantastic!

This book is a significant contribution to preparing and supporting social work apprentices through their learning journey, providing links between off the job and on the job learning. A great contribution to this area.
