...challenging, Social Workers are demanded to become more responsive and adaptable to the call of the times. It is therefore important that Social Workers, as they perform their roles in responding to the changing needs and demands of the various sectors, should be well equipped with necessary knowledge, attitudes, and skills for a more competent practice. Social Work can be described as a practicing profession that requires sound knowledge and competency in practice (Hepworth, Looney, & Larsen, 2002). Students have to learn and acquire knowledge and skills throughout the entire course. They are also expected to perform these knowledge and skills in various occasions in the course, such as in lectures, in seminars, and most importantly, the fieldwork placements. Field Instruction Program in the Social Work curriculum performs a very vital role in the training of future Social Workers. It enables the students to concretize the theories and concepts they have learned in the classroom, it allows the students to test their abilities in supervised educational settings and enables them to master and synthesize Social Work knowledge, values and skills. Field Instruction is one component of the BS Social Work curriculum which offers opportunities for the integration of theories and practice which could be within an established social agency or community (Kerson, Toba Schwaber, 1994).
