Step Up to Social Work - A Practice-led Programme for Professionals

A new, employment-based pathway will be delivered nationally from September 2010 providing a more flexible route for high achieving graduates to complete their Masters degree and qualify as a social worker.

The programme has been created by the Children's Workforce Development Council (CWDC), and is being piloted by eight regional partnerships of local authorities in six goverment regions across England, including west London.

More information is available from the CWDC website http://www.cwdcouncil.org.uk/news/3175_new-scheme-to-step-up-social-work-recruitment
