COU 580 - Practicum in School Counseling


This course provides students with 100 (40 direct and 60 indirect) supervised hours of experience as school counselors working with individuals as well as both large and small groups counseling experiences at pre-arranged sites. This course will expose the student to the practice of counseling with individuals under direct supervision. Students will conduct actual counseling/developmental sessions. The course is designed to facilitate the integration and application of theory and skill in earlier course work. Ethical codes related to the counseling profession will be reviewed and ethical issues and behavior addressed. The primary goal is for students to learn to listen therapeutically, provide the core conditions of counseling as well as additional client care, develop self-awareness related to these roles, and integrate this self-awareness and basic skills into the person the student is becoming as a counselor. NOTE: Students must take and pass the CORE Comprehensive Examination during the practicum experience before they are eligible to move on to further clinical experiences.

4 Credits.
