Gilgun (2005) states the cornerstones of evidence-based practice includes:
(1) What we know from research and theory;
(2) what we and other professionals have learned from our clients, or practice wisdom, which also includes professional values;
(3) what we, as social workers, have learned from personal experience; and
(4) what clients bring to a practice situation.

Gilgun, J. F. (2005). The four cornerstones of evidence-based practice in social work. Research on Social Work Practice, 15(1), 52-61.

Integrated Employment Assistance Programme for Self-reliance (IEAPS) statistics are being read by me. And I discovered that between April 1, 2017, and March 31, 2020, 25% of service receivers had found job or had gone back to regular education for at least one month. Then, may I declare that it is a software output?

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
