Abstract

Welcome to the 2018 Field Education Special Edition of Advances in Social Work and Welfare Education. The idea of producing this special edition of Advances originated at a 2015 Field Education Colloquium convened by the NSW Combined Universities Field Education Group (CUFEG), which is an umbrella organisation for work-based learning in social work and welfare. (A list of member institutions is appended at the end of this section.) Historically, CUFEG has been at the forefront of charting new territories in field education, a crucial area of social work and welfare education, having successfully convened three Colloquia and collectively negotiated for over 20 years with state-based children’s and health services. We maintain an anti-competitive stance, striving to cooperate in a competitive field placement environment.
