<p class="MsoNormal">Good morning,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My apologies for the confusion! For those of you just starting, apparently you have to apply for the following semester (Spring 2024) and the Graduate School will roll it back to the mini term. For those of you who have a semester completed,
you should be able to apply for Spring 2024 without a problem. Also, this is the last semester the Business Certificate SWK 512 will be offered. You will be allowed to take it as an elective only in the future.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hope this helps!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am finally ready to give permits for SWK 512 offered in the Winter Mini 12/18/23 – 1/09/24. Please apply for the SWK Business Certificate at
<a href="https://goapplytexas.org/">https://goapplytexas.org/</a>, <b>then</b> email me telling me you have applied and are ready for your permit.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There are four classes that will earn you the SWK Business Certificate. Three of the classes you will be taking anyway for your MSW (507, 508, 514). SWK 514 can be a substitute class for SWK 597. The SWK 512 class is only offered in
the winter mini and is free this year, including tuition and student fees. <o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This certificate is suggested if you are interested in gaining additional knowledge and skills that will position you for success, whether you’re starting a non-profit, assuming a leadership role in a non-profit or establishing a private
practice upon earning your license as a clinical social worker.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Let me or Dr. Brownell know if you have any questions.<o:p></o:p></p>
