This document outlines the career roadmap for becoming a social worker. It recommends volunteering or joining service clubs in high school, then obtaining a bachelor's degree from a college with a Council on Social Work Education accredited program, preferably majoring in social work, psychology, counseling, or sociology. Students should gain relevant internship experience and part-time jobs. After graduating college, candidates can apply for qualified jobs or pursue graduate studies. For those wanting to become a licensed clinical social worker, the roadmap recommends a master's degree from an accredited social work program, followed by pursuing jobs with licensing supervision and eventually obtaining licensure after required hours, supervision, and passing a state exam.
