社會工作最簡單的定義是「助人的專業」，要助人，先要瞭解幫助的人。在台灣，有一些人口群特別需要幫助---兒童、青少年、婦女、老人、身心障礙者、新住民。所以，我們要先認識幫助這些朋友的專業社會工作方法。老師會透過具體的方案、實際服務的機構來說明。社會工作是一種專業，專業需學習，更需實踐。在學習方面，從學士、碩士到博士，國內與國外的學習管道應有所認識，尤其是實習，各階段乃至課餘志工的投入，都很重要。本課程會詳加介紹。
專業須持續做，以累積豐富的經驗。本課程對各種社會工作者的專業生涯有所介紹，尤其是在非營利組織、政府體系的，也詳細說明如何探索、規劃與執行。

connotation
The simplest definition of social work is "the profession of helping others." To help people, you must first understand the people you are helping. In Taiwan, there are some population groups that are particularly in need of help---children, teenagers, women, the elderly, people with physical and mental disabilities, and new residents. Therefore, we must first understand the professional social work methods to help these friends. The teacher will explain through specific plans and actual service organizations. Social work is a profession that requires both study and practice. In terms of learning, from bachelor's, master's to doctoral degrees, domestic and foreign learning channels should be understood, especially internships. The input of all stages and even after-school volunteers is very important. This course will introduce it in detail.
Professionals must continue to work in order to accumulate rich experience. This course provides an introduction to the professional careers of various social workers, especially those in non-profit organizations and government systems, and details how to explore, plan and execute.
