_shel Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I have not done this course nor am I in Aus but, would that course get you past the skills assesment as a social worker? Unless you already have a relevant BA it may only qualify you as a welfare worker as they are quite strict on what quals you need to be a social worker, including BA, work placement etc But if you do the assesment for social work and fail they automatically asses you for welfare worker but not the other way round, but they are both 60 point occupations.

Quoll Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I am pretty sure that social workers have degrees not TAFE certification - certainly if you want to be employed as a social worker in government for example - the Australian Association of Social Workers would be the place to check to see if your qualifications meet their criteria otherwise you would be a community welfare worker I suspect.
