They’ll also have the flexibility to participate in the program from anywhere in the world, as the courses are completely online.
Dordt’s MSW program aims to prepare students for Christ-centered renewal in social work. Collaborating with a like-minded college like Grace only advances that mission. “Our shared commitment to Christ-centered education makes this affiliation a natural fit,” says Dr. , dean of behavioral science at Grace. “This partnership will strengthen our ability to prepare future social workers who are not only technically proficient but also grounded in faith.”
