Masters ‘Social Work’ are required to have an open mind and master a wide range of solutions and methodologies. This will enable them to work in an organisation or service in a policy-preparing and supporting capacity. The strength and expertise of a master in Social Work lies in that he or she can link a broad theoretical insight into the relationship between the individual and society, to the day-to-day practicalities of aid and services. He or she acquires knowledge on social-agogic processes, organisational skills, (strategic) planning, methodology development and implementation. He or she relies on scientific insights and methods from (applied) scientific research. He or she is able to develop a point of view, and to work out and expand upon methods. In addition, he or she knows how to pass this on to the field workers in the organisation.
