Bachelor of Social Work with Subject Area Licensure in School Social Work

Bachelor of Social Work (B.S.W.) students at UNCG interested in pursuing a career in school social work may apply for Licensure in School Social Work. School social work is an exciting and rewarding field of practice for those interested in working with elementary, middle, or high school level students and their families.Much of the work in this field involves preventive or early intervention work, which often increases the success of social work services. The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction requires that all social workers hired for School Social Work positions be licensed or be eligible to sign a provisional contract for School Social Work Licensure.UNCG’s social work program is not approved for what is termed “a Licensure Only Program in School Social Work,” which means that we can only provide licensure to students who are in the program.Our B.S.W. program has been continuously accredited since 1973.Accreditations and affiliations include the Council on Social Work Education and the National Association of Social Workers.
