Bachelor of Social Work
Being passionate about social justice in New Zealand society, and wanting to effect positive change is at the heart of social work; Social Workers, many of whom work through agencies such as Anglican Care Network, Baptist Churches of New Zealand Catholic Social Services, the Methodist Church, Presbyterian Support NZ, Open Home Foundation and the Salvation Army provide the essential services required to support and serve communities throughout New Zealand.
If you have a heart to help people find resources, overcome their problems and plan for the future, becoming a social worker could be the career for you.
BTI's faith-based 4-year Level 7 Bachelor of Social Work degree, accredited by NZQA and approved by the Social Workers Registration Board, is taught from a biblical world-view and can be studied from anywhere in New Zealand.
