Abstract
Starting new programs are challenging endeavors that require intentional strategic planning and commitment by those creating the program. As more master of social work (MSW) programs are being created, it is important for departments, faculty, and administration to fully understand the requirements and key issues of the accreditation process and standards, curriculum development. They must also consider the challenges and realities of change that will occur with the addition a new master’s program and the hiring of more faculty. For many programs, a new masters program doubles the size of the faculty.
