Is the postgraduate diploma in social work available at University of Auckland and University of Waikato in New Zealand?
Yes, the University of Auckland offers a Postgraduate Diploma in Social Work (PGDipSW). This program is equivalent to the first year of the Master of Social Work and is designed to prepare you for advanced roles in social work practice.
The University of Waikato does not offer a postgraduate diploma specifically in social work. Instead, it has a Postgraduate Diploma of Professional Practice in Social and Community Services (PGDipPSOCS), which is aimed at internationally qualified social workers and human services professionals seeking to practice in New Zealand.
Given your background in Human Resource Management and extensive experience, the PGDipSW at Auckland may be a strong fit.
