Social work is a rewarding career that really makes a difference.
If you’re looking for a career change and have the skills and determination to contribute to changing the future, the Step Up to Social Work programme could be for you.
Step Up to social work
Step Up to social work is an employment-based training programme that awards a Master’s Degree in Social Work, supported by two universities. There are a limited 200 places available on the programme, which has been specifically designed as a new way for mid-career changers to train as social workers.
Read more about the Step Up programme on the Children’s Workforce Development Council’s website.
The deadline for this round of applications is Wednesday 31 March 2010.
Social workers are professional people who make real, positive contributions to the lives of children, adults and families, in every part of the country.
