Implementing Evidence-Based Practice in Social Work Education: Principles, Strategies, and Partnerships

Enola K. Proctor

Washington University in St. Louis, ekp{at}gwbmail.wustl.edu

This article views social work education as fundamentally a knowledge implementation enterprise. It proposes principles, partnerships, and strategies through which schools can advance evidence-based practice in social work. Such strategies should meet five criteria: They must be deliberate and strategic, they should be knowledge based, they should reflect the complexity of social work practice, they should capitalize on school and agency core activities and resources, and they should build on natural partnerships inherent in professional education. Their savvy and ingenuity in leveraging existing resources may be the key to schools' success in preparing social work professionals for evidence-based practice.

Key Words: evidence-based practice • implementation • social work education • university—agency partnerships
