Abstract "This book serves as a resource for faculty liaisons, field instructors, task supervisors, and other field education professionals whose responsibilities are to prepare students for their roles after graduation. The authors endeavor to modernize and unify best practices in the field by elevating the conversation around inclusivity, advancing the latest technological advances, and harnessing the workforce development potential of social work field education to move the profession toward meeting the Grand Challenges of Social Work. Given the high risk of burnout in both students and field instructors, strategies are shared for self-care, mindfulness, and achieving work-school-life balance"-- Provided by publisher.
