Preparation for Licensure
Licensure is a critical step on the path to becoming a licensed social worker—without a license, you cannot practice as a social worker. The licensure exam encapsulates all you have worked for by affirming your knowledge and learning. However, there is more to the exam than a test. Each state has different requirements, and the journey to the exam room involves some bureaucracy and paperwork and the ability to navigate both. In this Assignment, you identify best practices for licensure preparation.
