LMSW Exam Prep: ASWB Masters Level Exam (August 2026 and Beyond)

Key Features

Our LMSW Exam Study System prepares social workers to pass the ASWB Masters Level Exam. Our ASWB Masters Level Exam Study Guide includes everything you need to confidently pass your social work exam. Our LMSW Exam Study System is fully updated to reflect the content of the new ASWB exams being released in August 2026. Our online study system includes:

• Instant access to course materials as soon as you purchase.
• New and improved audio lectures and a second full-length mock exam.
• An updated NASW Code of Ethics lecture and a 90-question Values and Ethics practice test to reflect the increased focus on ethics on the new exam.
• An organized, step-by-step study plan designed by experts in social work: we are the only program with a 10-step system that provides clear tasks to prepare for the ASWB Masters Level Exam. This makes studying efficient and effective.
• Audio lectures with printable handouts: listen and learn at your convenience. When you attend an in-person workshop, you listen to the information only once.  Real learning requires repetition. Our lectures provide the opportunity to listen and take notes as many times as you need.
• A thorough review of all essential content areas on the LMSW exam: we took the current ASWB Masters Level Handbook and organized our course in a way that makes all the content accessible and covers the information in a way that will actually be tested on the ASWB Masters level exam.
• Multiple, effective study tools. We all learn best when the material is presented in different formats, and our program does just that. We review the Top 50 Topics tested, provide multiple handouts, lectures, quizzes and mock exams to reinforce learning.
• A new and improved lecture breaking down the reasoning skills needed to be successful on the exam. To pass the LMSW exam, you need to understand how to approach the reasoning-based questions that make up the vast majority of the LMSW exam, including being able to identify the key clinical concept behind each question. Our study program brings content alive with real-life examples similar to the ones you will see on the LMSW exam.
• 600+ ASWB Masters Exam practice questions with audio or written rationales.
• Experienced LMSW exam prep coaches available via email for questions and support - our coaches are real live social workers who have passed the ASWB Masters Level Exam with a score of 90% or higher! They know the LMSW exam inside and out and will always email you back to you within two days (if not sooner!). Unlike other programs out there who cut corners, we will never create content or provide coaching using AI. We want to help you pass with confidence using our system that has helped over 100,000 social workers successfully pass their licensing exams.

This ASWB Exam Prep Program takes around 65 hours of study time to complete once. We recommend studying for 2-12 weeks for the ASWB Master Exam, depending on your schedule. While access to the program initially expires after 6 months, extensions are always FREE. We mean it when we say that we are with you until you PASS!

Still unsure if our social work ASWB Masters Level Exam Study Guide is right for you?

For many social workers, taking the ASWB Masters Level Exam can be very intimidating, and that is understandable. The ASWB Masters Level Exam covers a massive amount of content. With so many options: books, workshops, apps, and other online resources, finding the right social work ASWB Masters Level Exam Study Guide can feel daunting.

It has been our experience that many social workers come to us after using other social work ASWB Masters Level Exam Study Guides and failing (whether that is another online program, a book, an app, or a weekend in-person course).  Frustrated and defeated, they worry that after investing so much time and money into graduate school, they won’t ever be able to pass the exam. Many students report that they were overwhelmed with books or underprepared by an app that they bought that was nothing like the ASWB Masters Level Exam. We totally get it. That’s exactly why we created this LMSW study system for the ASWB Masters level exam. As social workers who have actually successfully passed the ASWB Masters Level Exam (and who have seen and experienced the other study materials out there), we knew there was a very real need for a better program for test-takers. That is why we created a robust but concise study system that provides a clear plan and multiple learning methods so your brain can truly understand, learn, and absorb the material. When it comes to passing the ASWB Masters Level Exam, you are in good hands with the Therapist Development Center team. We look forward to helping you pass with CONFIDENCE!

(Please note: candidates for the Michigan LMSW exam want to sign up for our Clinical LCSW program, as our LCSW course is the study system that provides preparation for the Michigan LMSW exam. Our LMSW exam prep is for a Masters level exam that is NOT required in the state of Michigan.)
