Abstract
This article describes an alternative path to the master's degree for experienced bachelor's degree social workers who cannot give up their employment for full-time study. Time frames replacing years, and a four-day-a-week fieldwork experience in the agency of employment are essential elements of this program. The article includes a review of relevant literature, a description of the program, and a discussion of questions educators might raise in trying to implement a similar program.
