License Exam Review Course (LERC)

LERC is an interactive course that builds confidence in helping you pass the Social Work licensure exam.  The course is designed for all levels of licensure, providing a one-day training for the BSW-level exam (LSW), and a two-day training for master's-level exams (LGSW, LISW, and LICSW).


"I never would have passed the exam without taking this course."

The course will:

  • Reduce test anxiety 
  • Sharpen test taking skills 
  • Review the knowledge base of Social Work concepts and theories 

The course includes:

  • Test taking pointers

  • Exam content review

  • Written and oral practice questions

  • Comprehensive manual 


"What really helped me was practicing the questions in class."

The Licensing Examination Review Course is in its 13th year.  All instructors are social workers drawn from NASW-MN and MSCSW membership (Minnesota Society for Clinical Social Work).  Most instructors are in clinical practice, with some also teaching at area schools of social work.
