Approaches that Schools of Social Work have taken in making their graduate programs more accessible are discussed. Among the issues raised are developing a curriculum plan, using local field resources, building in rural content, and ensuring adequate library resources. It is concluded that although there is no one "ideal model" available, there are a number of important factors that need to be considered in making curriculum and program modifications, e.g., an agreed upon educational plan, the availability of field practice away from the work setting but within the rural context, release time, arrangements to ensure richness and diversity of courses for specialization and concentration, and adequate library resources and experiences.
