Presentation
During your field education experience, you will interact with multiple clients. As you interact with clients and review your process recordings, you might discover that one client stands out. This may be due to the services needed or a potential case history that interests you.
As a future social worker, preparing a case presentation allows you to present social work practice skills demonstrated in addressing client needs to your colleagues.

An explanation of whether interacting with your client demonstrated social work practice skills
Identification of potential social work skills not demonstrated in your agency or field placement to include a proposed professional development plan
