Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

Pursuing a psychology degree in the USA opens doors to a range of career options, including social work and counseling. Each profession has unique educational and licensing requirements that vary by state, so it’s crucial to research your intended pathway.

For example, the degree needed to be a social worker in Wisconsin is typically a bachelor’s or master’s in social work, depending on your desired specialization. Similarly, Wyoming education requirements for social workers outline specific degrees and practice hours you’ll need before becoming licensed.

If you're interested in counseling, each state has its process. To learn how to get an lpc license in Alabama, you’ll need to complete graduate-level coursework and supervised experience. In contrast, the lpc licensure requirements in Alaska specify their own unique steps and standards.
