Social Work at Berkshire Community College

I went to Elms in the Berkshires as it was very convenient as I worked full time and was a mother of a young daughter. I was able to complete my degree locally and on Saturdays where I could schedule family to help with my other obligations.  The people that attended this program with me are amazing and many of them now work with me at Berkshire Medical Center in various roles.  I have made some lifetime friends through this program. The professors were great and covered the information in a way that was easy to understand, yet, with enough detail that I had a great foundation when I entered my master’s program. I had an amazing experience and would recommend the program to anyone thinking of Social Work.
