Editors
The editors have been involved in field education in a variety of ways throughout their social work careers as students, field instructors, liaisons, scholars, directors, leaders of regional field consortia, and members of the national Council on Social Work Education Field Council and the Baccalaureate Program Directors Field Committee. These involvements provided a perspective on the required components of a contemporary field program. The editors trained new field directors annually at the Association of Baccalaureate Program Directors (BPD) conference and recognized that one day of training is not sufficient preparation. This recognition was the inspiration for this book.
