About the School Counseling Program
The School Counseling Program awards a Master of Arts in Education (M.A.Ed.) in Counselor Education, and is offered on our Roanoke campus. Counselors help individuals change their lives. They work in school and community settings to advocate for individuals, and work to advance social justice. School Counseling is frequently among the top ten critical shortage teaching areas in Virginia. We understand that School Counselors are counselors who work in school settings. Thus, we incorporate the same courses for both School Counselors and Clinical Mental Health Counselors. Many of our students who complete the School Counselor program continue to earn their Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensure as well. At the completion of their M.A.Ed. program, School Counseling graduates will have completed all of the educational requirements for provisional licensure as a Professional School Counselor PK-12. After working for two years, graduates become fully licensed as school counselors.
