QUALIFICATION RECOGNITION REVIEW

Background

The qualification recognition review is aimed at ensuring that social work programme providers on the Board’s list of social work qualifications recognized for registration will continuously abide by the requirements set out in the Principles and endeavour to upkeep the quality of their programme(s) and the professional standard of their graduates.
 
Qualification recognition reviews will be conducted in two tiers.  The Board’s recognition of a social work qualification awarded by a  tertiary institution (TI) will be reviewed not more than three years after such recognition has been first granted.  Thereafter, a regular qualification recognition review will be conducted at intervals of not more than nine years.
