Assessment of Student Learning Outcomes
______________________________
The Clarke University Master of Social Work Program does not give course credit for life experience or previous work experience. Each student’s experience is unique and may be helpful in some areas of the MSW Program. These experiences, however, do not count for credit. Each student must complete all of the MSW courses to ensure that all skills, theories, and learning opportunities are covered.
