Abstract

The transformations in the civilizational paradigm and the resulting demands have increasingly highlighted the need for society to rethink itself as a learning society and to find balances and development models capable of responding to new problems and challenges. As we live in a complex society, we believe that the training of new professionals, as well as the (re)qualification of current professionals, is crucial and essential for the personal and professional development of all social actors. This is an exploratory study with the following objectives: 1) to map the training needs felt by students and professionals in the social field; 2) to make a diagnosis, based on this survey, in order to adapt the training offer to the contemporary needs of social workers.
