Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
Developed specifically for the social work degree apprenticeship, this book guides apprentices through the unique requirements of this new qualifying route. With contributions from academics, employers and students, it provides a broad and inclusive perspective to build effective working relationships.
The social work degree apprenticeship is unlike any other qualifying route to become a professional social worker. Apprentices have to juggling a number of competing demands, balancing their work and learning commitments, the expectations of their employer and those of their university. It can be intense, high-paced and stressful, and very often apprentices are mature students who may not have been in formal learning environment for many years. This book has been written specifically with apprentices in mind and by a range of stakeholders, not just academics, who draw upon their experience and expertise to help apprentices successfully navigate this qualification.
Key theoretical concepts are introduced throughout, practical advice given and learning features encourage reflection and application, making this a go-to textbook, whether it?s your first time taking a degree or you?re a mature student returning to study - this is an essential companion to your learning journey, helping you manage your relationship with your university and employer.
This edited book on Social Work Degree Apprenticeships by Clare Stone and Mary Shannon is a timely and important text for social work educators, students and practitioners. Written by key stakeholders, this book can be read as a whole or used as a reference source to understand specific elements of the apprenticeship scheme. The value of apprenticeship schemes is highlighted in addition to the stages in the journey to becoming an apprentice and amplifies the voices of apprentices which in my view has a lot to offer prospective apprentices. The activities and templates add further value to this informative book.
Dr Prospera Tedam (SFHEA), Associate Professor & Chair of Dept, United Arab Emirates UniversityThis book provides an excellent insight into the social work degree apprenticeship. It has been written by people who have proven expertise in developing social work degree apprenticeships, and who have developed a wide knowledge of supporting of supporting students and employers. This book is accessible, easy to read, well- structured and analytical. It also stresses the need for critical thinking and holistic approaches to practice. I would highly recommend it.
