Course Description:

'' The purpose of Certification in Rehabilitation Counseling (CRC) is to provide assurance that professionals engaged in the practice of rehabilitation counseling have met the established standards at the time of entry into the profession and have maintained these standards throughout their careers. The Program in Rehabilitation Counseling encourages all master’s students to become certified rehabilitation counselors and some employers require certification as a condition of employment. Applications for certification may be requested from:

The Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification
1835 Rohlwing Road, Suite E
Rolling Meadows, IL 60008
(708) 394-2104

Since the master’s program is CORE accredited, students are eligible to take the national certification examination (NCE) during their last semester of coursework. Students who have completed 75 percent of their coursework may apply to take the examination, which is offered twice a year (October and April) at Florida State University. Students who take the examination will not be sent their test results or certification numbers until they have submitted to CRCC a copy of their final transcripts showing the awarding of the master’s degree in rehabilitation counseling. Graduates from rehabilitation counseling programs are also eligible for certifications in other types of counseling including national counselor certification (NCC), geriatric counseling (CGC), vocational evaluation (CVE), case manager (CCM) and disability management specialist (CDMS). The completion of appropriate supervised post-graduate clinical experience is required. In addition, specialty training may be required. Students who wish to seek certification should consult the specific standards and requirements for the desired certification. It is the student’s responsibility to assure that their selected coursework and program of study meet these additional certification requirements. A counseling license is a credential authorized by the state legislature that regulates the title and/or practice of professional counselors. Most states have passed counselor licensure laws. In addition, a few states have passed rehabilitation counselor licensure laws. All licensed counselors must pass a state licensing examination, which in some states includes the CRC. The master’s degree in rehabilitation counseling is accepted in all states that currently have counselor licensure laws. However, the completion of two to three years of appropriate supervised post graduate clinical experience is required. Also, additional coursework may be required. Students who wish to seek licensure should consult the specific state standards and requirements. It is the student’s responsibility to assure that their selected course work and program of study meet licensure requirements.
