The intention of this website is to provide as much clear information as we can for NQSWs, their employers, supervisors and managers.
We also want to share some learning resources that may be helpful that we will continue to develop.
The information and learning resources have been informed by our work with employers, managers and social workers in different contexts.
We’ve also used the research and evidence generated through the Review of Social Work Education in Scotland to inform this website and the NQSW Supported Year approach.
We have included information, ideas and resources to support you whatever your role and we encourage you to explore the different sections.
If you are new to the website, we recommend that you start with reading the short overview of the national approach to the NQSW supported year in Scotland.
You can use the specific links on our home page, for specific details about the role of employers, NQSWs, managers and supervisors in the supported year. You can then source information and resources which are relevant for whatever your role is, or the stage of your journey as an NQSW by searching our resources.
The SSSC has created several websites that provide specific services for learning and statistic reporting.
