Earning a psychology degree opens the door to a variety of rewarding career pathways, especially in the fields of mental health, counseling, and social work. Many students choose to continue their education online to specialize further or to accommodate other responsibilities.

Social work is a popular career option closely connected to psychology. Requirements for becoming a social worker differ by state. For example, if you want to learn how to become a social worker in California, you’ll find specific steps and certifications unique to that state.

Similarly, Colorado social work license requirements detail their own educational and examination prerequisites. In Connecticut, you should review the Connecticut social work license requirements to understand their mandated process.

If you prefer the East Coast, discover how to become a social worker in Delaware. Each state has its own guidelines, so be sure to research thoroughly before choosing your online degree or certification program. No matter where you study, a background in psychology can help you thrive in these impactful roles.
