Extract

In Britain, social workers are trained on a variety of courses in colleges of further education, polytechnics and universities. Some of these courses are intended primarily for non-graduates and last two-years, others are four year undergraduate courses combining a first degree with professional training, and the remainder are at postgraduate level. Students in the last group may have graduated in any discipline from the humanities or the physical, biological or social sciences, many have degrees which included the study of psychology for one, two or three years, and some of these are honours graduates in this subject. The postgraduate social work courses last one or two years depending on the subjects covered in the students' first degrees.
