Social work students already registered with the SSSC
The information in this section is useful for social workers and newly qualified social workers registered with the SSSC.

Students who are also working

If you are a registered student and also working in a service where workers are required to be registered with the SSSC, your registration as a student will not cover your post and you will therefore be required to apply for registration on the part of the Register applicable to your employment. Please contact the Registration helpline on 0845 60 30 891 if you need additional registration.
