My situation was somewhat unique. I had graduated with an MSW 29 years ago. As a military spouse for 22 years it was not always possible for me to find jobs in the field of social work, or if I was fortunate to be hired as a social worker, I was not consistently hired at agencies who could offer supervision. And then there were the jobs where I could receive supervision but the hours were not reciprocated in the state where the Air Force sent us. This meant that my ability to rack up the necessary clinical and supervised hours was severely compromised. Finally, came the sweet sound of Air Force retirement and living in one place! Of course this meant I would be able to get the hours and take the exam...29 years after graduation. This course afforded me the opportunity to fill in the gaps in my learning and prepare for the exam in a manner which complimented my own learning style. I am an auditory learner. I also learn through doing. Having the ability to listen to the recorded information in each section was a gift! I strongly doubt I would have been able to study as well for this exam, and be so well-prepared, had I only had exam prep books. I highly recommend that course to anyone who is being licensed for the first time in years or has just gotten out of school and completed their hours. I passed my exam the first time! Thank you so much!
I passed with a 90%! I felt SO confident going in after studying with TDC!
I used TDC study due to honestly having no idea where to start with studying for my LCSW. The program helped me get organized and helped me feel confident in my abilities. Today I passed with a 120 only needing a 102 to pass. To say I'm a fan doesn't even cover my pleasure with the program. I highly recommend the program to anyone wanting guidance and confidence in your abilities. Thank you for the help in becoming an LCSW :)
I graduated with my MSW in December 2020, became a Registered Intern in January 2021, and I studied with TDC for 3 months, then passed my licensing exam with ASWB on 4/6/21. Thank you so much for your wonderful, thorough, and easy to follow prep course! I am so happy you had the most important lectures on audio; us MSW students have burned out eyes from all our studying for our programs and so listening to the audio is a beautiful way to learn. Plus I listened to it in the car in my commutes. You only needed 103 correct to pass, and thanks to you I got 121 correct. Now all I need is to complete my 2 years of supervision and I will be a LCSW! Thank you TDC!!
I was a bit concerned about passing this exam because I don't have much mental health experience, although I've been working as a social worker for many years in child welfare. I believe that the comprehensive program and the lectures really helped me think critically about answering the questions, eased my concerns and increased my confidence. I would highly recomend this program to anyone looking to take the clinical exam. Thank you so much.
Needed 103 to pass, and got 135 correct!
Best study course!!
This is a excellent program, very clear and concise.
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! I passed my LCSW exam on the 1st try in March 2021 using the Therapist Development Center (TDC) program. I was first impressed that as a veteran I did not have to pay for the program. I simply provided TDC proof of my military service. The TDC course helped me to strategize my studying plan, I began to study in January 2021 and took the exam at the end of March. I felt very confident going into the exam. I liked the advice TDC gave me regarding taking a break and eating a snack halfway between the exam. I felt my brain reenergize when I took a short break and drank some fresh grape juice. I especially found the quick studies, quizzes, and practice tests very helpful. The program was easy to follow and I was very pleased. Amanda and Bethany were great at explaining each topic. They are knowledgeable about clinical social work. I have already recommended TDC to my friends, colleagues, and coworkers. TDC is worth the investment. Thank you, TDC.
There's a reason why everyone swears by this program. It is ABSOLUTELY worth it. I am 7 years removed from grad school, so there was A LOT of re-familiarizing myself to certain recall questions. When I took the pre-test, I didn't do so well. But this program does an amazing job structuring the prep and I was able to build momentum as I followed the course outline. By the end of it, I felt significantly more confident than when I started.
Today, I took the exam and while the usual bouts of self-doubt crept in, I was able to go through each question with a process that I've developed during my time prepping. I passed it in one try and I am so thankful for TDC's help.
