Ontario Social Work Continuing Education: Certificates, Diplomas & Graduate Programs by Specialty

As a second year (at the time of writing) social work student, I am already getting the impression my undergraduate degree in social work won't be enough: it is common for social workers to do continuing education (it's also a requirement by the OCSWSSW!). 

This page is the result of my research into Ontario based college and university programs that serve as excellent professional development for social workers. 

Programs include certificates, diplomas and whole degrees, and as many specialties as possible, including kids, mental health, addictions, and more.

Don't see a program you think should be on the list? Shoot me a message. 

Always be sure to verify with the school if the program is still being offered. 

List development is ongoing.
