Popis: | A small-scale research project was undertaken to explore the feasibility of shared learning, joint training or dual qualification for occupational therapists and social workers in their professional qualifying programmes. A two-stage process examined the curricular requirements of the two professions and the working practices of occupational therapists and social workers in selected authorities. Similarities were found in both curriculum content and working practices, suggesting that a partly shared curriculum between the two professions at qualifying level was both feasible and desirable. However, structural differences in the two professional programmes could place restrictions on the development of joint programmes. Professional expectations and expressed concerns indicated that a dual qualifying programme was not a desirable option at this time. |
