Description

In this episode, I sit down with the Social Work Academy team at Lancashire County Council to talk about how they support newly qualified social workers during their ASYE year. We explore the induction process, the challenges new practitioners face, and the role of ongoing learning and reflective practice. I also share insights from my own contribution to their ASYE Induction Programme, where I deliver a dedicated session on communication skills — a cornerstone of effective social work practice.

Whether you’re a new social worker, an academy lead, or a team manager, this conversation gives a behind-the-scenes look at how one local authority is building confident, resilient practitioners from day one.
