DescriptionThe Social Service Worker program involves courses offered through Brock University and Sheridan College of Applied Arts and Technology. This four-year program combines training in a variety of applied social service settings at Sheridan College with an Honours BA Women's and Gender Studies at Brock. Students can obtain both solid applied skills and a strong theoretical foundation in a variety of aspects of social services. The program leads to career opportunities in a wide variety of areas including youth worker, assistants for developmentally challenged individuals, counsellor in a variety of group home and mental health settings, and acting as an advocate or counsellor in crisis centres or centres for women.

Obtaining both an Honours B.A. Women's and Gender Studies and a college diploma would ordinarily involve at least five years of study, but this Brock-Sheridan articulation agreement program combines the two in a single integrated package that can be completed in four years.
