Please review this message in full; I am sharing important information for you to be successful with your field experience.
The field team is continuing to process field applications and will be slower to respond to email, as we are processing applications our first priority this time of year. If you are emailing inquiring about a field application, please know that we processing applications for a Summer 2024 start and you will be contacted directly for next steps via your AU email.
* IF you attended a field orientation, it has been recorded and disregard other messages that are sent to attend. You only need to attend one orientation.
Applications need to be submitted by the deadline but likely will not be approved by the deadline.
If you started your internship in the Fall 2023 or Spring 2024 term: Please make use of the Tevera tutorials listed in the “Learning Space on Tevera” as well as in the BSW Field Resources Moodle page. Please also make sure you have clicked the Tevera link in your Field Instruction course (SWK 4210 or SWK 4220) Moodle shell. This will allow all of your field documents/assignments to populate. If you have concerns or questions about your field placement, your Field Liaison/ Course instructor is your first point of contact.
If you are planning to start an internship in the Summer 2024 term:
- Tevera applications are being accepted until March 1.
Please make sure you complete steps 1-3 for your field application.
In step 3, you are responsible for the New Field Instructor form, the Projected Dates form, and the Track form. If you complete these steps, you have met the November 1st deadline to submit your Field application. If your site tasks say "Waiting On" and then your supervisor or myself, you have met the deadline.
If your application site tasks say "In Progress" you need to restart the form and resubmit it to your supervisor.
Here is a Tevera application tutorial to assist with the process.
- Your applications will be processed in the coming months. You will be contacted at your AU email when you have been given permission to register for Field Instruction courses or if anything is needed for your application. Watch for emails from me.
- If you have not attended the Online Field Orientation,
you will need to do so before you take the field courses. You only need to attend
this one orientation session but are welcome to join as a review.
