The paper presents arguments in support of competency-building approach as a methodic determinant of modern-level education in the light of globalization process; justifies, that competence should be considered as innovation standard in the Third Generation Federal State Educational Standard of Higher Professional Education. Also presented is a set of competencies stipulated by the FSES for the training direction 040400.62 �Social Work� (with the degree (qualification) of Bachelor). The author reveals her own views on how to draw out an exemplary map of proper blend composition of competencies for a Bachelor-degree social worker with further integrating this map in the educational process, as one of the ways to implement competencybuilding approach. Challenge areas in developing and assessing competencies and benchmarks for eradicating these shortcomings are suggested with respect to implementing Third-generation FSES of Higher Professional Education.

Hope has dynamic features that look to the future and motivate people. Yet despite being synonymous with social work, psychological terms have tended to define hope’s perimeters. Its role in social work is often heralded, yet its unique, critical and temporal role has not been well mapped in social work theory. This article explores the use of hope in social work practice. A conceptual framework highlights the richness of hope, its application in social work practice and its position in social work relationships. The implications for direct practice, further research and professional education are also discussed.

Baccalaureate social work personnel in the United States have gone through a significant transformation during the past decade. Always a significant part of the social work labour force, they are now being prepared to assume a profes sional role. The two studies discussed in this paper highlight some of the current trends in Batchelor of Social Work programmes which have been accredited by the Council on Social Work Education since 1974. As this transition continues into the 1980's, the Baccalaureate practitioner will play an increasingly important role in the delivery of social services in the U.S.

A major value of any international meeting lies in the opportunity it provides for interchange of views and experience among delegates from all parts of the world. At the Eleventh International Congress of Schools of Social Work, special emphasis was placed on discussion in small groups of the major theme of the Congress. The following reports summarize the major subject areas covered by three English-speaking groups, one French- speaking group, and four groups in which Spanish and Portuguese were the languages of communication. The summary reports which were presented at a general session on August 17, 1962 were based on accounts prepared by the chairmen and recorders of each of the groups. The IASSW takes this opportunity to express its great appreciation to the general rapporteurs, the chairmen and the recorders for their immensely valuable contribution to the success of the Congress.

Students in professional social work programs in the United States traditionally receive little direct information about or contact with professional associations. What exposure they do get is haphazard and primarily through extracurricular means. This article describes and evaluates a curricular module to enhance student awareness of and connection to professional associations. The group work classes at a Midwestern United States university were adapted to include a course module addressing the role of professional associations. Components of the module include readings, discussions, presentations and attendance at a professional association meeting. Pre- and post-tests were administered to assess the initial impact of this module. The module appears to have had an impact upon students’ knowledge of and appreciation for professional associations. The authors advocate for increased curricular attention to facilitating this connection.Keywords: professional associations; social work curricula; professional education; NASW; MSW education; professional development
