About The Conference
The MSWC is geared towards Millennial Social Workers. This conference provides a creative space for new and rising social workers to gain professional development, connect with mentors, and identify the resources they need to excel and grow within an organization or as an entrepreneur.
MSWC attendees have the opportunity to participate in roundtable discussions, connect with experts in the field, and earn continuing education credits (CEUs).
This 2-day event is going to be filled with awesome speakers, delicious foods, and informative topics pertaining to the field of Social Work.
MSWC attendees will leave with new ideas and information that will elevate their careers as Social Workers. So join us and get ready to collaborate with some of the brightest in our discipline.
Why Millennials?
This conference is unique in its intent to help millennial Social Workers engage, collaborate, and network with each other all while ensuring individuals leave inspired, motivated, connected, and informed.
After attending many conferences, it became evident of the lack of information catering to the millennial mind. From there, this technology-driven, innovative, engaging, personable conference was formed. Through research we know that millennials are more productive with group work, hands-on activities, mentorships, and networking; MSWC will offer opportunities for all of those necessary elements.
Thank you for your support
