Yep, that's a plus as well. Now to be fair - in my state (Illinois) for LSW licensure, I'm pretty sure it's 3+ years post-BSW. At that point, I'd (hopefully) already have completed my MSW and be en route to LCSW licensure, but still. My employer does offer some advancement opportunities as well for BSW grads who are in the process of obtaining/completing their MSW, so that's another selling point for me.
