Abstract

This research has the internship on social work as subject, and it purposes to analyze the three characters who compose it: academic supervisor and trainee. I have chosen this subject because of my period doing my internship, as well as the necessity of study a subject of relevancy for the students’ formation. This research is also about how social work course has begun in Brazil, its periods and development of the profession, specifically about professional formation. Realizing that the internship is an important moment while the student is at college, this research showed how this moment works to the student and how the students’ actions while they are living the internship period will affect the professional formation of the future social worker. This is a qualitative research, and it has great relevance to the academic community as it works on one of the most important moment of the student’s life: the internship.
