The Human Services and Social Welfare program is
designed to prepare for employment or retraining in
private and public community service agencies such as
welfare departments, child development and adult,
including elderly, programs and other human service
organizations and institutions. Students learn the skills
and knowledge necessary to work as paraprofessionals
or professional aids under the supervision of workers
with professional degrees. Completion of the
Certificates of Achievement also provides a basis for
further academic preparation for university social work,
gerontology, and other human service professional
degrees.
