Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP)
CACREP accreditation provides recognition that the content and quality of the education offered by the accredited program has been evaluated extensively and meets standards set by and for the profession. The student can be assured that appropriate knowledge and skills areas will be included that are necessary for entry into the counseling field. The student as a consumer can also be assured that the program is financially stable. As a graduate of CACREP accredited program, a student applying for certification by the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC) will have the two (2) years of postsecondary supervised experience waived. This facilitates and expedites one’s experience in becoming National Certified Counselor (NCC). In addition, some states will waive a portion of the post-graduate supervised experience required for licensure.
