The degree is offered through a One Year Program for applicants who hold a Bachelor of Social Work and a Two Year Program for applicants with another honours degree, both including practicum placements as experiential learning. Based in Ottawa, students have access to federal government departments, national and international associations, research institutes, and non-governmental organizations working on social policy, along with related archival and library resources.
