Here's a recent review from Emily Bridwell:"TDC study methods were extremely helpful. The program was recommended to me by numerous colleagues, all of whom had passed using TDC. For me, TDC study methods took much of the confusion out of the exam and structured my studying in such a way that I felt confident and assured. The test was pretty tough - but, I passed! Thank you, TDC!"
The Therapist Development Center is proud to report that 95% of our customers pass the LCSW Law and Ethics Exam using our LCSW exam prep study system. The LCSW Law and Ethics Exam was created to ensure that unlicensed social workers understand the California laws and social work ethics that govern clinical practice. Passing the LCSW Law and Ethics Exam is required in order to obtain your license as a clinical social worker in the state of California. The LCSW Law and Ethics Exam must be taken annually until you pass in order to maintain your status as an Associate Social Worker, which is necessary to accrue your clinical hours.
