The main purpose of this publication is to present reflections on the preparation process which is offered for social workers and volunteers in social service and social work fields. The range of analysis includes mainly areas of such qualities as ethos and morale and to a lesser degree knowledge and methodic skills of workers. Knowledge and methodic skills of social work are important in work focused on creating positive human qualities, however, prior to knowledge and methodic skills, come behavioral patterns, examples and values that shape social worker's personality. Involvement of human forces present in social worker's partners requires not only professional competence but personal qualities such as awareness of the work's ethos, values and behavioral patterns that promote sensitivity, empathy, acceptance and compassion. Although there are many educational offers focused on training social workers there is no program focused on preparation to upbringing to social activity, upbringing to social service and upbringing to social work. We need this kind of offer, because knowledge and social work skills alone are not enough in social work.
