This article presents information regarding the prospects of social work. Social work has continued to value and emphasise capability and motivation in selecting students for entry into professional education, and this in the face of a relatively smaller volume of persons in the population of the age range available for recruitment. Maintaining selection standards may thus accentuate the shortage problem. At the same time, employing agencies and the professional schools themselves may relax qualitative standards in the face of stringent manpower shortages. Social work has responded to the problem of personnel shortages in a variety of ways, but this is not the place to summarize the modes of action adopted by organizations and agencies in the field. One can recognize the valuable intensive recruitment efforts, the financial support for education, the fellowships for graduate professional study, the vigorous activity of the Council on Social Work Education the activity of the National Association of Social Workers, and the research in various schools of social work on recruitment and selection as all contributing to the search for a solution to the manpower problem in the field of social work. |
