Abstract

Training of social workers, based on national and EU standards of education, aims to acquire by them the professional qualifications and competencies. It also aims to the development of the profession in order to cope with the social challenges of modern society. The analysed issue of the European training system of social workers is presented in the context of the legal regulations in the selected European countries.

In this context, it is worthwhile to learn the basic qualifications and competencies of social workers obtained in the course of education in selected European countries. The presented study examines this issue with regard to Polish standards. There is a need on the one hand the implementation legislation to Polish legislation, on the other hand, every state has the right to apply the relevant education system for their own solutions to social workers defining qualification standards of the profession. There is therefore a need for updating and developing educational standards in preparation for the profession of social worker in Poland, using the standards of the EU, EU Member States and European states outside the EU. The article draws attention to these considerations, and tries to present these standards in the context of European and national educational standards.
