The CWLA Research to Practice website www.cwla.org/programs/r2p/ has both an annotated bibliography and a research brief (Research Roundup) on child welfare workforce issues that you may find helpful. Most of the research reviewed there pertains to child welfare as a whole and much of that which examines the role of education in either performance or staff retention breaks it out only by social work vs. no social work education, but not into MSW/BSW. We understand that some additional studies are underway that may add to this knowledge base and should be reported this year. Sue D.

I think the findings were that MSW practitioners were more effective. This may be a gross misinterpretation, however help in locating any references would be greatly appreciated.
