Social Work program, Bachelor

The Tabor College Social Work program's mission is to equip students with values, knowledge, and skills to be helping agents in a diverse world while integrating a Christian faith perspective and enabling students to serve those in need with compassion and professionalism. Students will integrate a Christian faith perspective with social work practice that emphasizes and promotes the following core social work values: utilizing a strengths-based perspective, social and economic justice, peace and reconciliation, and dignity and worth of all persons.

The Social Work program of Tabor College acknowledges the solid academic, professional, and ethical standards expected of professionals in social work. While every effort should be made to help students develop in these areas, students whose performance fails to display such standards will be held accountable and prevented from continuing in the program. The following guidelines are intended to maintain the licensure program's integrity and create a sense of responsibility in social work students.

For over a century, Tabor College has impacted the lives of thousands of people. At Tabor College, we strive to prepare people for a life of learning, work, and service for Christ and His kingdom. This mission is accomplished by giving students a decidedly Christian education. It is what sets us apart and fosters the growth and strength we cherish here at Tabor College.

The core values that influence the mission and vision of Tabor College include a commitment to being Christ-centered in all aspects of life, a passion for learning, the promotion of service to others, and meaningful involvement in college and community activities. Students are encouraged to celebrate and discover who they are through various groups and activities, including Bible studies, residence hall fun, chapel, and special events planned throughout the year. Tabor is designed for the way you like to live and the way you like to worship.

The purpose of Tabor is to promote learning. We recognize that learning occurs in informal settings, in the classroom, and organized field experiences. Our goal is to develop students who are broadly educated, competent, and well-rounded, who embrace learning joy.

Tabor College is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and follows the Open Pathway to accreditation.
