Our College is also accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE).
School and/or Mental Health Counseling
Students who complete the School Counseling track, a 48 credit-hour CACREP accredited program, are eligible to be licensed to practice as school counselors in the State of Vermont. The Mental Health Counseling track, a 60 credit-hour CACREP accredited program, prepares graduates for licensure in Vermont as mental health counselors, with additional post-degree requirements. Students also have an option to enroll in the Dual Option (67 credit-hours), completing educational requirements in the state of Vermont to be eligible for licensure in both school counseling and mental health counseling.
New Part Time Cohort Program
Interested in earning a Master’s Degree in School and/or Mental Health Counseling while still working your day job? The new Part Time Cohort Program is structured so that enrolled students can take all of their non-field-based courses on a part time basis during the late afternoon or evening (after 4 PM) two days a week.
