A national priority in South Africa is to address the many social development needs prevalent amongst individuals, families, groups and communities.
Social Auxiliary Work and Social Work are acknowledged as being essential in addressing these priority social needs. Social Auxiliary Work and Social Work are in the frontline of social development and transformation, particularly in traditionally under-resourced communities. The need for Social Auxiliary Workers in South Africa was identified more than 10 years ago, leading to the role and functions of Social Auxiliary Work being defined in the Regulations of the Social Service Professions Act, 1978 (No 110 of 1978). These Regulations define Social Auxiliary Work as “an act or activity practiced by a Social Auxiliary Worker under the guidance and control of the Social Worker and as a supporting service to a Social Worker to achieve the aims of Social Work”.
This implies that Social Auxiliary Workers are assistants to Social Workers, providing support services and working under the guidance and supervision of Social Workers. Social Auxiliary Work complements and supports Social Work in all focus areas with services to individuals, families, groups and communities.
In order to provide this assistance and support to the social work team, a qualification in Social Auxiliary Work and registration with the SA Council for Social Service Professions are necessary (Re: SAQA QUAL ID: 23993).
CEFA’s newest training contract is with the Department of Social Services in the Northern Cape. Learnership training will be conducted with70 learners from Upington, Kuruman and De Aar. This training project started in 2009.
