Shon passed his final test!

Shon finally got up the guts to take his final exam. Shon graduated with his bachelor's degree and took a 170 question 4 hour test and became a Licensed Social Worker. Shon then attended graduate school and graduated and then took a 170 question 4 hour test and became a Licensed Master Social Worker. He then was supervised by a Clinical Psychologist for a year and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for a year and 3000 hours over at least 2 years and was then eligible to take another 170 question 4 hour test. This last test tested him on everything he had ever learned in social work. You can clearly see from the picture he passed. There are no more tests for social work unless he was to get his PHD. Which probably won't happen. Shon is now a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and can bill insurances and work independently on his own license. His current license is also nationally recognized. It is awesome to be done.

Good job Shon!! Don't tell Jake I said this, but he took a test yesterday, and bombed it. Maybe he will study harder when he takes it again next month. Congratulations, we are proud of you, and you can social work us any time you want. That is, as long as you say what we want you to.
