Department:Social Workhttps://www.uamont.edu/academics/social-behavioral/social-work.html
Summary of Job Duties:The Field Education Director works under the supervision and direction of the Director of Social Work and provides leadership, administration, coordination, and oversight for all aspects of the Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) Field Education Program. The Field Education Director is responsible for ensuring that all field education activities are planned, implemented, and evaluated in accordance with the 2022 CSWE Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EPAS), university policies, applicable legal requirements, and professional ethical standards.
The Field Education Director is responsible for the overall management and continuous improvement of the field education program, including the development, implementation, evaluation, and revision of field education policies, procedures, manuals, learning agreements, evaluation instruments, and other field-related documents. Responsibilities include but are not limited to establishing and maintaining community partnerships; recruiting, approving, and evaluating field placement agencies; coordinating student placements; providing training and consultation to field instructors and task supervisors; monitoring student learning and field performance; collecting, managing, analyzing, and reporting field education assessment data; and preparing all field education documentation required for program assessment, institutional reporting, and CSWE accreditation.
This is a 12-month, non-tenure track administrative faculty appointment reflecting the year-round responsibilities associated with field education administration, community partnership development, student placement, accreditation compliance, and continuous program assessment.
The successful candidate will teach four courses during the academic year, including the Field Practicum I and II and Field Practicum Seminar I and II courses during the fall and spring semesters. Consistent with CSWE expectations recognizing the extensive administrative responsibilities associated with directing field education, supervision of the Field Practicum courses represents a 25% teaching load reduction, resulting in a teaching assignment that is lower than that of traditional full-time faculty.
