State-by-State General Disclosures

In states where bachelor’s-level Social Work licensure is offered, LBC’s program meets educational requirements through accreditation with the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE). A BSW from LBC also prepares a student to work toward a Master’s in Social Work, which is a licensure requirement in many states.
