I'm thinking about moving to detroit within the year . I am a registered social worker with an MSW in Ontario. What does one have to do to get licensed. Is it a course, exam etc. How long does it take? Is there a web address that I can write to.

Here is a link that might help. Sorry I cannot offer any first hand knowledge. MDCH - Social Worker

There are different criteria for that "title" in the state of Michigan. Log on to SOM - State of Michigan, and you will find test locations, information pertaining to how often they need to be retaken and so on. On the other hand, they are many affiliations and organizations that also have memberships. Every employer is different and may like to see that you are a member of one of these organizations. Look up the National Counseling Association. Good Luck

Chances are you will have to take the test after ponying up a fee. I believe you can only take the test if you can document 2,000 hrs of supervised professional work. The most respected SW association in the country is National Association of Social Workers, but joining them won't help you get the license. For that you go thru the State of MI link helpfully provided above. What field are you in? Where will you be working?
