This approval means that social work continuing education programs are generally acceptable to social work regulatory boards across the United States and Canada.

Regardless of whether a CE provider pursues individual course approval or provider approval, programs must adhere to the ACE standards outlined in the ACE Handbook.
States and provinces that accept ACE

Does the Internet Make Bullying Worse?
October 10, 2017, Memorial University
This lecture has a wide appeal to multidisciplinary service providers, including social workers, educators, law enforcement and other social service agencies, as well as parents, who are all concerned about child and family well being.
Dr. Faye Mishna, dean and professor at the Factor-Inwentash Faculty of Social Work, University of Toronto, will present findings on her research conducted among Toronto area students in Grades 4, 7 and 10 which found that 10% had been bullied over the Internet and through other technologies such as text, instant messaging and other social media. This lecture will share insights into how to identify the signs of cyber bullying and the kids victimized by it. There will be an emphasis on the importance of working with kids so they learn to be empathic and stand up for others. The implications of the research findings for social work practice, policy and research will be addressed.
This presentation will be recorded by the Center for Innovation in teaching and Learning (CITL) for future learning opportunities. Please be advised that attendance in person serves as consent to being recorded.

About the MSW via online delivery
- Our MSW program is delivered entirely online through a learning management system known as Brightspace, which you can access from any computer. Learn more about the Brightspace system and course delivery.
- It is important to note that this program is open only to residents of Canada (citizens and permanent residents) who are currently living in Canada.
- The MSW by distance delivery is generally completed in 3 years of part-time study [PDF - 90 KB]. It can be completed in as little as 2 years. We’ll work with you to create a course sequence that fits your life as well as your degree requirements .
- You should expect to spend about 3 hours per course per week on course activities and 6-8 hours per course per week on readings and/or assignments, just like a campus class.
- Flexible: each course is divided into modules. Within each module, you can log in to the course and complete your work at times that fit your schedule.
- All tests and assignments can be submitted online. You do not have to arrange for proctored examination locations in your home community.
- As an MSW student, you will complete a 450-hour Field Placement (Practicum) at a social work agency in your home community.
- Your distance experience will be comparable to the campus experience, and your degree will be exactly the same.
- We help you to navigate your online courses. Email [email protected] if you have any questions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are the language requirements for the IESW program so rigorous? Social work professionals require well-developed verbal and written English language skills to be able to counsel clients, discuss sensitive personal matters, keep detailed case records, prepare written reports, and make professional presentations. This is why IESWs are screened and supported for English language proficiency.
What kind of documentation do I need in order to prove my Ontario residency? A copy of your Ontario health insurance card or Ontario driver’s licence are acceptable as proof of Ontario residency.
What kind of documentation do I need to prove my eligibility to work in Canada? A copy of Canadian citizenship, confirmation of permanent residence, refugee claim or convention refugee status are acceptable as proof of Canadian work eligibility.
How can I have my international degree and credentials assessed by the Canadian Association of Social Workers (CASW) or World Education Service (WES) ? If you have a social work degree, you can find information about how to have your international degree/credentials assessed by the Canadian Association of Social Workers by visiting the CASW website .
However, if your degree is not in social work but in humanities or social sciences and you meet all the eligibility criteria, your degree should be assessed by the World Education Service (WES) on a course-by-course basis. Visit the WES website for details.
What are Canadian Language Benchmarking (CLB)-based assessments? Can I submit language scores from another language assessment such as TOEFL, MELAB, or IELTS instead of CLB- based assessments? Your test scores from Canadian Language Benchmarking (CLB)-based assessment, Instructor Assigned CLBs, Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), Michigan English Language Assessment Battery (MELAB), CLBA (Canadian Language Benchmark Assessment), or International English Language Testing System (IELTS) are acceptable as proof of language proficiency.
If I am eligible for the Certificate in Canadian Social Work Practice but unable to participate, must I reapply for the following year? Yes; however, you will not be asked to resubmit all of your documents. Please contact us at [email protected] or 416-979-5000, ext. 554095, for further clarification.
To find more about the centres that conduct the language assessments, visit the Centre for Canadian Language Benchmarks website .
