Foundation year introduction: Competencies are measurable practice behaviors that are comprised of knowledge, values, and skills. The goal of this approach is to demonstrate the integration and application of the competencies in practice with individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities (CSWE, 2008). The ten competencies are listed below (2.1.1-2.1.10), each with corresponding practice behaviors for which students will be assessed. For foundation year students, please understand that performance assessment should be aligned with first year expectations, which is at a beginning level. The entire 0-10 point scale should be used to evaluate student achievement considering this level of practice. Please use the comment section to supplement your assessment of each competency.
