Newly Qualified to Experienced Social Worker Level Professional Capabilities

This document presents the Qualifying (last placement) to Experienced Level Professional Capabilities for social workers in table form – so that it is easier to see the progression from one level to the next. This is intended to help people to think about their careers.

The capabilities should be read in conjunction with the level descriptors which can be found after this introduction – the details of the capability statement at each level are intended to be used diagnostically to help identify strengths and areas for development, rather than as a list of areas for which evidence must be produced.

The nine domains are interactive – they work together to describe the knowledge, skills and values that social workers need to practice effectively. At the advanced level of the PCF, they also describe how being a social worker should influence the ways in which one acts at this level.
