Continuing Ed

The UT College of Social Work offers a diverse selection of continuing education programs and events, as well as professional certifications. Our annual conference provides free CEU and networking opportunities for our alumni, students, and the community.

For individuals working toward licensure, we provide free licensure prep materials to individuals who have attempted but not yet passed their exam.

Check back frequently to stay informed of the many opportunities offered. The fundamental mission of the social work profession is to serve people needing assistance and to work to make social institutions more responsive to human needs. And we want to make sure you are fully equipped with the tools you need to do just that.
