Maintaining your learning and development: Accessing and using support
The SSSC ebook, Maintaining your learning and development explores various aspects of the knowledge and skills you will need in order to continue to develop and learn new things and continue to be an effective social service worker.
This learning resource has been designed to enable you develop knowledge to promote good practice in all your work, you may find it particularly helpful if you are undertaking, or about to undertake, a Scottish Vocational Qualification (SVQ) in Social Services and Healthcare. In conjunction with the other apps in this series, it contributes to knowledge that you will require to complete SVQs.
We know that the most effective learning we do is learning we apply in the real world as soon as possible. So, in this eBook, most of the activities will ask you to carry out tasks in your workplace and discuss the outcomes with your supervisor/assessor/mentor and/or line manager and enable you to create evidence you can use here to claim this badge.
To achieve this badge you will need to:
- use the information in Accessing and using support from chapter two of the ebook to write a short reflective account to explain how you think you could make best use of supervision to improve your practice (150 words minimum)
- write a short reflective account to explain how you will use the knowledge you gained from the chapter in your practice in future (100 words minimum).
We will decline applications that do not provide enough evidence showing how you have met these criteria.
