Student Destinations

This course provides the professional social work qualification which enables graduates to work in any area of social work practice, including the statutory, voluntary, and private sectors.

When you qualify, you will enter social work, which then offers you the opportunity to undertake post-qualifying training to enable you to progress in an area of social work that interests you – such as mental health or child protection. One of the joys of having a social work qualification is that there is no typical trajectory. It allows you the scope and freedom to forge your own career path in line with your personal motivation.
