If you're requiring a degree, it probably originally was for a reason. Like the assumption of critical thinking, dedication, consistency... things I don't think you get from online "schooling". But those are the people they're hiring. And throwing directly into the field to use their own judgment. Training simultaneous to work doesn't make sense for this particular field people. They always seem to make sure to tackle the person right in the open who obviously has other resources, barricades, whatever. This guy was at a very public event and hella people intervened and got the story and still the CPS has to try to jump on the doggy pile? Whereas the marginalized kids who no one ever hears of who actually need intervention, who have no one else looking out for them. Those are the kids you hear horrible things about when you get into the office and we're working on a press release or with county counsel instead of cases. Not too rarely, either.
