To find colleges offering case management programs, I recommend you do the following:
1. Specify your desired degree level: Are you looking for an associate's, bachelor's, master's, or doctoral program? This significantly narrows your search.
2. Specify your area of interest: Are you interested in medical case management, social work case management, geriatric case management, or another specialization?
3. Use online search engines: Search using terms like "[degree level] case management programs," "[degree level] medical case management programs," or "[degree level] social work case management programs." Include your geographic location (e.g., "case management programs near me" or "case management programs in California") to refine your results.
4. Check college websites directly: Once you have a list of potential colleges, visit their websites and search for their academic programs. Look for keywords such as "case management," "health services administration," "social work," "human services," or related terms.
5. Use college search websites: Websites like Peterson's, College Navigator (National Center for Education Statistics), and others allow you to search for colleges based on specific programs.
Examples of types of programs and institutions (Note: This is NOT an exhaustive list, and program offerings change):
* Many universities with social work programs: Social work programs often incorporate case management training. Look for universities with strong social work departments.
* Universities with health administration or public health programs: These programs might offer concentrations or specializations in case management, particularly medical case management.
* Community colleges: Often offer associate's degrees in human services or related fields, which can include foundational case management skills.
* Specialized vocational schools: Some vocational schools might offer certificate or diploma programs focused on specific types of case management.
Remember to carefully review the curriculum of any program to ensure it aligns with your career goals and licensing requirements (if applicable).
