Social worker assistant
needed for this job
To register as a social worker, you must have completed a recognised social work qualification.
Your certificate must show the date your qualification was awarded. If it doesn’t, you will need a letter from your institution confirming this date. Social worker England may contact your course provider to gather information about the areas you covered throughout your studies.
To support your application, you will be asked to write a letter explaining how your education, training and experience meet our professional standards. You may wish to submit this with your application. Advisers will assess your qualifications and experience to decide whether they meet our standards for registration.
If we feel there are significant areas in which your application does not show that your skills, knowledge and experience meet our standards, SWE may ask you to undertake a period of adaptation. This is a period of supervised practice and/or academic training intended to make up for the shortfalls that have been identified.
You will need to provide the following as evidence of your qualification:
- your certificate
- the name and address of your course provider
- the name and address of the awarding body
- a full transcript showing all the modules you studied
