The problem
What Track Your Hours can't do that ASWs need
At 3,000 hours, the LCSW path stretches roughly three years. That's three years of weekly supervisor signatures. Printed, signed with a pen, scanned back in, filed somewhere. Do that every week for three years and you've spent dozens of hours on a process that should take seconds.
There is no separate BBS fieldwork phase on the LCSW track. BBS experience on the LCSW track begins as an ASW, or under the 90-Day Rule when its conditions are met. School field placement can remain in your records, but it is not a separate BBS licensure phase. Track Your Hours doesn't have dedicated ASW experience tracking, so you're on your own figuring out which rules apply to your ASW experience.
SparkHours handles both. Your supervisor signs digitally via a secure link. No account needed on their end. ASW experience is tracked automatically with the correct rules.
