What People are Saying

This program has changed my life. It has changed how I see the world, others as well as myself. I always tell people this is a "life" course and that I truly believe everyone would benefit from taking it.

I would and have recommended this course to others. When researching the CCSW program someone told me that this was the preferred program for hiring by the school district. Students are well supported and even if you struggle there are many avenues for help.
