Abstract
This paper explicates a competency-based direct practice curriculum for graduate social work education. Specifically, admission and graduation requirements related to five knowledge-skill areas are outlined: (1) interpersonal behavioral control, (2) judgment and decision making, (3) contracting and goal setting, (4) selection and application of change method, and (5) assessment of outcomes. The implications of this empirically based educational model are discussed in terms of accountability and congruence between educational objectives and practice behaviors.Keywords
