Shared Language & Definitions

With the guidance of the Council of Social Work Education (CSWE) 2022 Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EPAS) toolkit, the BSW Program Committee established a list of key terms and definitions to serve as a baseline for teaching ADEI concepts across the curriculum. Here is the list for your review: 

BSW / MSW Program ADEI Shared Language: Key Terms/Definitions

These terms were reviewed, edited, and approved for use across both BSW and MSW programs by the full faculty assembly. 

Please ensure that you are utilizing these terms as indicated in the shared language document in your BSW class(es), as this will help us deliver a consistent learning experience.
