TDC is incredible and without it I would not have been able to get into the right mind frame to focus, study, take all the practice material and PASS. With an infant at home and working part-time; prioritization and time were of the essence. I did not have the emotional capacity to fail so I followed the directives of Amanda and her team as without it I would not have been able to PASS. I did NOT use any outside material as I trusted Amanda and her team were preparing me for the LCSW exam as comprehensive as possible. If you follow the exact directives she provides and carve out that time to really focus you WILL PASS!!

TDC doesn't have you fighting the LCSW exam but rather it has you use your study preparation as a measure of the type of social worker you are. I loved the focus on ethics, as I agree that there needs to be more ethical social work practice in the field. It gets you to ACTUALLY think rather then memorize some stuff.

My initial exam date was actually programed in mid-March but was cancelled do to Coronavirus. I was devastated but I called a at the end of the April after taking a 3 week break from studying ( at which point I had already completed the program twice as suggested by Amanda) and decided on Monday to take the test on Saturday. And PASSED it on the first attempt. I was really calm as I felt fully prepared.

Thank you so much to Amanda and her team!!! They are INCREDIBLE and so responsive. If this program can work for a mom with an infant and part-time job; I have NO doubt it can work for anyone!!! This program is worth EVERY single dollar!!!!! Just follow their directive and you too will be an ethical critical thinking social worker!!

This prep course is worth the money. It teaches you how to think and really does give good practice questions related to the exam.

Studying for the test was difficult with this global pandemic along with having to home school my two kids, and teleworking for my fulltime job as a clinical social worker for a children mental health agency. I just kept thinking what Amanda kept saying: The exam tests your ability to keep the public safe. I answered each question with this thought in mind. I also found the Mock and Full exam very. Thank you TDC.

I took the exam for the first time a year ago. I failed. I was extremely intimidated to study, especially without a plan for success. I finally reached out to colleagues for some guidance, as my aspirations outweighed my fears of the exam. I was directed to this program which is a GAME CHANGER when it comes to study tools. I gave birth to my daughter in March. This program is so efficient that I was adequately able to study, while being sure my daughters needs were provided for. The audio lectures and personal coach were a helpful and needed touch. I entered the exam feeling successfully prior to receiving my score. The “Pass” was confirmation of both my abilities and the solid foundations in clinical practice, this program offers. I needed a score of 103 to pass and received a score of 114. This program was a driving force in that accomplishment. I give God all the glory and extend a special thank you to the team at TDC. THANK YOU ! Thank you ! THANK YOU !!!!!!!

I PASSSSSEDDDDDD!!!!!! I needed a 103 to pass the exam and got 119 correct! I only used this program for studying and it was my first time taking the exam!! I definitely COULDN'T have passed without the program. I went through the program twice and studied the quick studies the week of the exam. TDC, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!! Now, time to celebrate :)

TDC was an excellent, comprehensive program! The trainers are very knowledgeable and the rationales that are explained throughout the course work and mock exams are tremendously helpful when sitting for the actual exam. I passed on my first try with an 83!! Thank you TDC, I will certainly recommend the program to other social workers!!

I passed my LCSW exam after previously failing. I truly believe that TDC prepared me far more than any other program I used previously (LBSW/LMSW). The program was structured and provided adequate focus on each subject. The audio recordings were soooo helpful!! Thank you for creating this program, it works! I’ve recommended it to friends and colleagues and they love it!!

My journey to obtaining my LCSW is long, so I will make this short. My goal has always been to obtain my LCSW since I started grad school in 2003 (my chidlren were 3 years old and 5 months old at the time). My life has been very full, very busy, and my persistence and determination has finally paid off! My husband and children (who are now 20 and 17) have sacrificed a lot as I continued to pursue my social work career and journey to obtain my LCSW. Honestly, I'm just glad the test is over and I passed!!!

Thank you, TDC, for the study system. It was extremely helpful! Also, thank you for providing this valuable service to militay Veterans at no cost!

Whew! I thought I was failing all throughout the test but I kept my faith, took a break at question 85, a few deep breaths, and asked what would Amanda do in this situation?! Thank you TDC. Y'all are A1!

With the structure and broad base of materials, Therapist Development Center was exactly what I needed to pass my exam on the first try! I highly recommend this program without hesitation. Worth every penny.
