  • 1.  Practicum Consortium Leads - Request for Contact Info

    Posted Aug 12, 2025 09:10

    Hello colleagues,

    I hope this message finds you well. I'm working to identify the names and contact information for the practicum consortium leads in each region of the county. If you are a practicum consortium lead (or know who serves in that role within your region), I would greatly appreciate it if you could share their contact information with me.

    Please feel free to reply here or email me directly at kmfree@umich.edu.

    Thank you!

    Warm regards,
    Kayla

    Hi Kayla,

    You can find a list of Consortia Leads and contact information on the NANFED website 

    Here are the current consortia where we have no "lead" or current contact information:

    Illinois Statewide Field Director's Consortium

    Kansas Council of Social Work Educators

    Minnesota MSW Consortium (this is currently a non-functioning Consortium)

    New York Area Field Directors Consortium

    South Carolina Field Education Consortium

    Wisconsin Field Directors Consortium

    NANFED hosts quarterly meetings of Consortia Leads and does our best to keep the list as current as possible. If you aren't familiar with NANFED and would like to learn more, please reach out to me or Dr. Yanni Robinson (Assistant Director of Field Education, Online Program, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor). We'd love to collaborate with you in any way that might be helpful.

    Julie
