Social Work course load question
Hello!
I was accepted into the BSW distance program this September (yay!). I am curious if folks can share their experiences with course work load?
I work full time (4 x 10 hr days, so 3 day weekends) and for the last 2 years I have been taking 3 courses per semester which has been manageable for me. I know the SOCW courses are mostly self directed, which is also what I have been doing. However, those were 100 or 200 level courses so I’m cognizant of the fact that year 3 & 4 courses may be more intensive.
Alternatively- is there anywhere I can view previous course syllabus? I’ve tried searching online and can’t seem to find them. That may help me figure out what I can take on.
Also bonus question about practicum by prior learning assessment- has anyone completed this route? Trying to decide if it’s worth it or if it’s better to just do the practicum for experience.
Thanks in advance!
