Where and what kind of education is needed to become a case worker for child support?

To become a case worker for child support, you typically need a bachelor's degree in a related field, such as social work, human services, or criminal justice. Some states may require a master's degree in social work (MSW) or a related field. In addition to education, you will also need experience working with children and families, as well as knowledge of child support laws and regulations.

Here are some specific educational requirements for child support case workers in different states:

* California: Bachelor's degree in social work, criminal justice, or a related field

* Florida: Bachelor's degree in social work, human services, or a related field

* Illinois: Bachelor's degree in social work, human services, or a related field

* New York: Bachelor's degree in social work or a related field, plus one year of experience working with children and families

In addition to education, most child support case workers must also complete a training program that covers child support laws and regulations, child development, and case management. These training programs typically last for several weeks and are offered by state child support agencies or private training providers.

Once you have completed the required education and training, you can apply for a job as a child support case worker. Child support case workers are employed by state child support agencies, county governments, and private law firms.
