Hi Gerardo
Great question. Here are a few things to know:
1.Volunteer to be a social worker's aide while you are still in high school. You will get firsthand experience to discover what social work can entail.
Maintain a good grade point average throughout high school. Establish good study habits for yourself.
Ask your guidance counselor for a list of colleges in your preferred locations that offer social work programs.
4 Be aware that a bachelor's degree in social work (B.S.W.) is required for entry-level positions in the social work field.
- Get licensing exam information for the state in which you live.
I hope this helps.

Here are the qualities every social worker should possess
Empathy, boundary setting, active listening, social perceptiveness, self-awareness, persuasion, cooperation and relaxation and de-compression.
By the very nature of who we are and what we do, most of the qualities and skills mentioned here are innate to our own personalities.
Good luck!
