Description

The Step Up to Social Work programme provides an accelerated entry route into social work for high-achieving graduates and career changers. It targets high calibre individuals who already have experience of working with children and young people and who want to train as Social Workers. Step Up to Social Work is delivered through the development of a bespoke work-based 14-month postgraduate diploma programme, led by groups of local authorities working in regional partnerships (RPs) and contracting with Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). Students successfully completing the course will qualify with a postgraduate diploma in social work. This will enable students to apply for registration as a qualified social worker with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC).
