Centre for Development of Social Care Practice

The Centre is a joint venture between the 天美传媒 and Luton Housing and Community Living and Children and Learning Departments.

The Centre provides practice learning opportunities for students on the BSc Social Work and the MSc Social Work programmes at the 天美传媒. CDSCP offers placements for students undertaking their final year of the social work degree.听

The Centre also provides continuing professional development opportunities for newly qualified social work students, experienced social work practitioners and social care staff who are interested in acquiring further experience and qualifications.
