Careers with Children
Yuehan Yuehan
Yuehan works as a legal secretary. Most of his firm's work relates to family law and he is interested in becoming a social worker. He already has a degree and has looked into post graduate social work courses, but decides that he needs more experience before applying. Yuehan manages to get some voluntary work, supporting a fathers’ group in a family centre, but he also wants to take a relevant academic course part time.

Yuehan spends his year prior to starting his social work course completing a Certificate in Health and Social Care (K100). He finds the course useful in helping him decide that he is making the right move, but also in preparing for his interview!

Note: Yuehan cannot study for a social work qualification with the Open University as he is not employed in social work nor is he sponsored by a social work agency. He may be able to use K100 to reduce the modules he needs to study if the university he goes to can offer him a credit transfer.
