Being a modern profession rapidly evolving and rapidly changing, the social work has to respond to new challenges, related on the one hand to the quality of the professional social work activity, and on the other side to the conjunctures and emerging challenges. The need for social workers on the European labor market is growing, as well as their skills requirements. The reference to the quality standards in the training of social workers has become an imperative. Assuming that it is absolutely required to build an identity of the social work profession and to adapt it to the national character, and that this can not be done without the knowledge and the exploitation of the past experiences and without an alignment of the profession to the internationally evolution, the present study made a foray into the history of the education of social workers in Romania, as well as a comparative analysis of national and international quality standards on this education.
