A review of research about the transition from student social worker to practitioner: Exploring diversity

“…Australian social work literature to date has examined issues relating to international students' language skills, cultural capital or competence, special needs and field education experiences (Harrison and Ip, 2013;Ross et al, 2019). However, a wider focus on student's transitions to practice or on their development as professionals has yet to be considered (Battaglia and Flynn, 2019).
