Listening to the podcasts and saving podcast episodes I wanted to listen to again multiple times – saving them to my own study playlist was very helpful!
I would listen to the material/practice questions on my commute to work. Also purchasing the Agents of Change practice tests helped a lot! I took two, one a few weeks before the exam & then another, one week before taking my exam.
Agents of Change provided me with the rubric for what to study for the LCSW exam without having to consistently refer back to the KSAs. I enjoyed the flexibility of being able to follow along with the Slides if I was sitting to study, or simply listening to the audio while commuting. The practice questions allowed me to analyze the material learned to answer the problem.
The most helpful part of Agents of Change was the videos and practice questions. The videos were so in depth I took lots of notes and it really helped me to be prepared for every practice question. A
ll the videos are broken up really well and full of details to help you understand how to apply this knowledge with exam questions. With every practice question came a rationale that really broke down how to find the correct answer. The question break down using the 5 W’s was so helpful on actual exam day.
Agents of Change helped me not only learn the content, but also understand how to take the ASWB exam. The material was organized in a way that felt manageable instead of overwhelming, and I loved being able to use the app while walking on the treadmill or studying on the go. The Sunday live sessions were also incredibly helpful because they reinforced key concepts and kept me motivated.
Most importantly, Agents of Change taught me how to approach the exam itself. I learned that passing isn’t just about memorizing content—it’s about understanding how to answer the FIRST, NEXT, and BEST questions the way the exam expects. That shift in thinking made all the difference for me. After several near misses, I finally passed my LCSW exam, and I truly believe Agents of Change played a major role in helping me get there.
The Agents of Change materials were very comprehensive and more than enough to get you where you need to be. Know where you are within the helping process at all times. This exam revolves around your judgement as a social worker, breathe and relax, you know the answer already!
The Agents of Change information was in-depth and the rationales were explained. The content broke down what the questions were asking and how to answer the question correctly. This includes not adding information to the scenario that isn’t included. Essentially working with the information you’re provided.
I enjoyed the way Agents of Change broke down the topic domains, especially the DSM5. Also, I was able to change the speed for the videos. Lastly, all of the social work shorts were so helpful and relevant during the actual exam!
After 26 years of social work practice, I am thrilled to share that I earned my Independent Social Work license, taking the Master’s level exam. I graduated with my MSW 21 years ago! The Agents of Change study program was an instrumental component in my organization, preparation and strategy towards reacclimatizing myself to foundational Masters level content and my success on my exam. Thank you.
I just wanted to reach out and say thank you. I passed my Clinical ASWB exam, and I truly do not think I could have done it without Agents of Change support.
Your materials, explanations, and practice questions helped me understand the ASWB mindset in a way that finally clicked. After previously struggling with the exam, your content gave me the structure, confidence, and critical-thinking skills I needed to succeed.
I know how emotionally exhausting this process can be for social workers, and your program genuinely made a difference for me. Thank you for creating such an incredibly helpful resource and for helping me reach this milestone in my career.
Agents of Change helped me with how to break down the question stems regarding first, next best or most and the monthly study groups helped me pass too!
