School of Social PracTice |
|
The School of Social Practice is the home of counselling and social work at BTI. The team of educators in the school believe in the integration of a Christian world view, biblical principles and professional standards to deliver high quality counselling and social work services to our communities. Our programmes emphasise that professional practice comes out of who you are as a person. We therefore focus on providing the opportunity for students to develop both intellectually, emotionally and spiritually, and to understand the influence of their history and socio-cultural context on professional practice. Our programmes also have a strong work integrated learning component to complement the learning undertaken in the classroom or online. Several courses are shared across the counselling and social work programmes so that students also have the opportunity to participate in a diverse learning community.
The team of educators in the School of Social Practice are knowledgeable, skilled and relational, whose teaching practice is informed by their previous experience in the field as counsellors or social workers. The team teaches across all of our programmes so that students benefit from the range of professional perspectives. The wisdom and knowledge of both tangata whenua (people of the land) and tangata tiriti (people of the treaty) are woven throughout the curriculum to enrich the student learning experience. A number of our educators are research active and the team is committed to the highest pedagogical and professional standards.
Programmes within the School of Social Practice are professionally recognised and NZQA accredited, and graduates from the programmes are well acknowledged for their contributions within their respective communities of professional practice.
