The electronic version of the handbook on the organisation of cases has been completed. The handbook is designed primarily for specialists employed in the social sphere but may also prove useful to students of social work.

The handbook was produced from case-based network training which was developed by the Pärnu college of the University of Tartu in 2005 at the request of the Ministry of Social Affairs.

The training was required in order to cement the case-based network knowledge of specialists, 90 of whom from different local governments, rehabilitation institutions, probation supervision services and regional departments of the Labour Market Board took part. 84 completed the course in summer 2006. A new training course began in autumn with another 90 specialists. However, since more training is needed than can be offered in one go, the case-based network knowledge has been collated in a handbook.

The case organisation handbook was produced by the Ministry of Social Affairs in association with InterAct Projektid, Koolitus OÜ and the Pärnu college of the University of Tartu. The print version of the handbook will be published at the end of October and is planned to be distributed primarily to rehabilitation institutions, local governments and regional departments of the Labour Market Board.
