IASW in partnership with BASW host this year’s World Social Work Day celebration for social workers across the island of Ireland to meet and share their views on the importance of encouraging a professional social work identity.

The format will be interactive, with a series of informal workshops enabling attendees to discuss issues including: what it means to have a professional social work identity, the role of CPD in supporting identity, service users’ views on professionalism, and the impact of regulation for a professional group.

The programme will also explore how the professional bodies and regulators from both sides of the border can work together to better support social workers to grow in confidence in their professional identity.
