Why the Social Work Distance Education Virtual Conference?
Social work is a multifaceted profession that integrates research, teaching, practice and policy to drive meaningful progress. Blending these elements is critical for advancing the field – equipping new practitioners with essential skills, improving intervention strategies and preparing professionals to champion policy change. As technology becomes increasingly central to social work education and practice, distance learning must empower students to connect with their environments and engage with a broader, more connected world.
