(3-9 credits)
Prerequisite: CNSC 523 and CNSC 526 and CNSC 580; and a practicum application approved by the director of fieldwork
This variable credit fieldwork experience is for the advanced master’s counseling graduate student who is seeking a license as a school counselor (5-12) in Massachusetts. Students pursuing a license as a school counselor must complete a minimum of 600 hours of fieldwork over at least two semesters and at most four semesters at an educational site. Students will register for three credits for each 150 hours of fieldwork they will complete that semester. While completing fieldwork hours, students must attend the accompanying fieldwork seminar class in conjunction with completing their fieldwork hours. The seminar meetings will serve to provide group supervision as well as integrate knowledge and assist with application of theory to practice. Students must submit a completed fieldwork application; see counselor education student handbook. This experience may be repeated for a total of 12 credits. (Formerly CNSC 581)
