A full time coordinator for the Salisbury University social work degree programs is scheduled to be located at SMHEC in February or March of 2013, providing counseling and advisement for students interested in the social work programs. Information sessions are also planned for spring and summer sessions of 2013. Both social Work degree programs are fully accredited by the Council of Social Work Education–a must for the earning of a graduate’s licensure.
