December Webinar

 

Title: Navigating the Licensure Process

Date: December 8, 2020

Presenters: Drs. Levette Scott, Kelly King, and Kyla Kurian

Description:

Graduation is approaching!! Now what? How do I navigate through this licensure process? What do I need? Who can help me? In this session we will discuss the process and procedures of becoming licensed as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor-Associate and eventually Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. This session will focus on discussing the National Counseling Examination (NCE), application process, the jurisprudence exam, the licensure affidavit, the disclosure statement, and the supervision contract. We will have a conversation about this process, the do’s and don’ts of this process.

At the end of this session students will be able to:

  • Provide an overview of the eight parts for the National Counseling Examination content.
  • Identify items needed for the application process.
  • Identify what the Jurisprudence exam entails.
  • Understand the role of supervision and how to choose a qualified supervisor.

Foliotek


North Carolina Central University is switching to a new assessment system (Watermark/Taskstream).  The School of Education will no longer use Foliotek.  We will make information about this new system available as things progress.  For now, you do not need to create or renew a Foliotek account.  You will not need to upload any more documents into the Foliotek system.  Please be assured that faculty will still have access to what you have already uploaded in Foliotek.
