Description
Post-MA School Counselor Certification – School Counselor License
The Post-MA School Counselor Certificate program is designed for individuals that possess a Master’s degree in Counseling (Community, Addictions, Marriage and Family, or College from a CACREP-accredited institution) and wish to become certified as a school counselor. The 18 credit hour curriculum consists of an intensive focus on the role of the counselor in the K-12 school and the broader context of K-12 education. In addition to traditional coursework in school counseling, a 300-hour internship completed in a K-12 setting is required. The Post-MA School Counselor Certificate program does not lead to licensure as a certified teacher.
Admissions Requirements
The requirements for admission to the non-degree granting Post-MA School Counselor Certificate program includes the following: an MA in Counseling from an equivalent graduate Counseling program (granted within the past 15 years), a 1-2 page Letter of Intent that outlines your personal career goals, one Letter of Recommendation written by an employer or former Counseling faculty member, and an interview with the Program Director. Any gaps in the initial Counseling curriculum may require additional coursework.
