Overview

The Social Work Online degree programme from Pacific Oaks College uniquely prepares graduates to promote well-being, empower and invigorate communities, and support a sense of community and family-centric models of service and learning. As a strength-based program, students learn to enhance protective factors and prevent the development of problems in communities, groups, and families.

Grounded in Pacific Oaks’ social justice and equity frameworks, students will also learn how to advocate for change in traditionally underserved communities. This practice enables us to prepare entry-level social work generalists who can provide greater access to culturally appropriate practice across diverse populations.

The online bachelor’s degree in Social Work programme explores both the macro (e.g., policy change and programme implementation) and micro (e.g., case management, care coordination, health care, and discharge social work) relevant to the field of social work.
