BA (Hons) Social Work Studies (top up)

Social worker and young girlIf you became a social worker some while ago, you may be thinking about how to bring your existing qualifications up to date.

This flexible degree enables you to do just that, by ‘topping up’ your Certificate or Diploma to a degree in social work studies, in as little as two years. You don’t have to be sponsored by your employer, and you can carry on earning while you learn – studying part-time at home to fit in with work and other commitments.

There’s a wide choice of modules to suit your needs and interests – from working with children and families or older people, to developing communication and management skills.
