Social Work Licensing Exam (SWLE)

The Social Work Licensing Exam (SWLE) is a professional test that individuals must pass to become licensed social workers. It assesses their knowledge of social work principles, ethics, and practices to ensure they can effectively support and advocate for clients. The exam typically covers areas like human development, assessment, intervention, and policies affecting vulnerable populations. Successfully passing the SWLE demonstrates that a social worker has the necessary skills and understanding to provide competent, ethical services within the field. Licensing helps protect clients and maintain professional standards in social work practice.
