For those interested in administration and international work there are many opportunities as well."
The website caters to all varieties of social work professionals but its primary focus is on the aspiring student. It provides information on top social work schools, jobs, salaries, licensing, as well as advice and case studies from the field. It also provides information on various undergraduate and graduate schools, international social work jobs, as well as resources for scholarships and continuing education courses for licensure renewal.
