The web-site aims to provide information on social work and social care education and training as well as background information on the Consortium (who it is, what it does, etc). While the main emphasis is on the West of Scotland the general information on how to qualify in social work is of relevance throughout the UK. This information covers the continuum of training from

training
One of the main tasks of the Consortium is the organisation of professional
social work training in the West of Scotland. This is via the Diploma in Social
Work (DipSW) Programme delivered by the Consortium partnership. Much of the
site is devoted to setting out the Programme's requirements
and regulations, including assessment procedures, information on placements
and arrangements
for Advanced Entry to the Programme.
