Abstract

Undergraduate social work education is evolving through the integration of social responsibility, holistic student support, educational partnerships and the use of digital technologies. Programmes emphasise social justice and a culture of non-violence, ensuring adequate professional and ethical training. Psychological and social support becomes a priority for student success, and collaboration with employers and alumni helps improve training. The digitalisation of education, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, offers new opportunities for teaching and learning. Review-type analyses can provide insight into current trends in university training programmes. The present research, although limited in scope, manages to identify a number of key directions for academic training in social work.
