    basically Social Workers are in short supply up here... and so the Council offer people employed by the council the opportunity to study to be one whilst still paying them their current salary... so in my case i might be able to study to do this.

    Social Workers also get good retainers and handshake incentives... i.e. 3 grand if i stay in this area for 2 years, and a £1500 golden hello incentive.. topped off by a pay ranging between £28000 and £32000 (which goes a looong way up here :) )

    EDIT: A financial incentive scheme (£2,000) is payable to qualified Social Workers
    who agree to stay for 3 years. Other benefits include an attractive relocation
    package of up to £5,000 and free life cover. A current driving licence is
    required.

    all i have to do is deal with junkie fuckheads who mistreat their kids... and i'm a banister expert :cool:

    Yeah the training is web-based, but would eventually be unendorsed.

    The badges do not reference the 10c server. It'll be a surprise :D
