| Abstract: | The continuum of education for social work will be deficient until it systematically includes continuing education opportunities for workers employed at the bachelor's level. The paper addresses the importance of attractiveness and relevancy in the design of continuing education for members of this substantial component of social service manpower. It discusses ways of facilitating movement by more bachelor-level workers than at present into graduate-level training, and suggests several ideas for an educational design relating to continuity and progression in career learning, and to competency, career advancement, and continuing professionalization. |
