BSW Programs: Apply for BEL Program Funding

Friday, May 16 is the deadline for the BSW Experiential Learning (BEL) Program applications. Since this deadline is rapidly approaching, we encourage all eligible BSW programs to review the Request for Proposals (RFP) and request an application today from the BEL Program Web page.

This unique funding opportunity is only for BSW programs in order to reach students early in their academic careers. The program will support BSW faculty to design experiences for their students to interact with older adults. By facilitating positive experiential activities, the BEL Program aims to recruit BSW students to social work field placements, MSW level education, and careers working with elders and their families.

If you have questions after visiting our Web site, please e-mail the CSWE Gero-Ed Center.

Deadline for BEL Program Applications: May 16, 2008
