Learn How to Become a Social Work Champion

The information presented here on CaliforniaSocialWorkEDU.org took hundreds of hours to gather. It’s no secret that California needs bright, motivated, and qualified social workers. To help bridge this gap, we aim to deliver the most up-to-date and accurate information so that prospective social workers can make the best decisions regarding their professional future. The data we offer here comes from the most reputable sources, sometimes from the colleges that teach these programs directly.

The fabric of social work continues to change, though. As different communities require different kinds of support, social workers need to stay connected to understand shifts in the field. We consider CaliforniaSocialWorkEDU.org to be the best place for you to begin your journey into social work education, training, and licensing.
