Integration seminars occur during the practicum term. The seminars are comprised of a group of MRU – diploma students from a variety of agencies and are facilitated by full-time and part-time faculty in the role of Faculty Liaison.
The seminars provide an important opportunity for all of you to share your experiences, to gain support, and to practice the skill of peer supervision.
During the term, you will attend a total of six seminars.
Please be sure to schedule all of these dates into your schedule and pay close attention to the dates.
Seminars will involve:
- Integration of practice activities with Social Work knowledge, values, and skills
- Sharing issues that arise related to Practicum
- Taking an active role in all learning activities
Students absent from one seminar will have 5% deducted from their overall grade. Students missing more than one seminar would risk failing the course. If there are exceptional circumstances regarding an absence please advise your instructor immediately so the situation can be reviewed. The obligation to keep the instructor informed rests with the student.
