Hello Aspirant,

To become a social worker, it is essential that the candidate possess a Bachelor's degree and a Diploma or Master's Degree in Social Work/Psychology/Counseling from a recognized university. Apart from this, candidates with the following qualifications are given preference for the selection of the post of Social Worker:

  • Specialised Diploma or Certificate relate to concerned posts such as Women / child development or health or environmental etc
  • Knowledge of Computer
  • Knowledge of the local language where the field is appointed

This may help.

Hello student ,

This course can be opted for both Bachelors and Masters program. The bachelors in the same takes 3 years to complete, while the Master degree is of 2 years. For bachelors the first and foremost condition is that the candidate must have completed 10+2 or equivalent examination with minimum of 40% score for admissions in these colleges. The admission is based on cut off issued by the universities and some colleges may have their own entrance exam.

Master’s may require a little more. Usually, it requires a bachelor’s degree in any stream, a little field work, some experience in the same and sometimes a personal statement or letter of recommendation. These can be easily achieved once you decide this is the only course you want to opt for.

Hope it will help you !
