The first requires a minimum of 48 credits and prepares individuals for careers as counselors in elementary and secondary schools.\u00a0The second requires an additional 12 credits for a total of 60 credits and is a specialization in Counseling Urban Students.\u00a0This second track provides candidates an opportunity to specialize in counseling urban students and expand their employment opportunities to settings serving children\/youth outside of the schools, such as treatment foster care or nonprofit youth programs. For students who also desire state licensure, candidates can also attain the licensure requirements with this second track.<\/p>\n<p>Both programs are National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (N.C.A.T.E.) accredited and meet state certification requirements of the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia. Students seeking school counselor certification in other states should consult the appropriate certification offices in those jurisdictions. Both programs consist of required courses, laboratory and field experiences, and a comprehensive exam. Students' programs are planned in consultation with their faculty advisor; prior experiences and professional goals are considered.<\/p>\n<p>Learning experiences emphasize the integration of theoretical knowledge with professional practice in a supervised setting. Attention is given to understanding ethical, multicultural, socioeconomic, and developmental issues. Graduates from Trinity's counseling degree programs are qualified to provide individual and group counseling; implement assessment and consultation services; and develop, direct, and evaluate comprehensive counseling services.<\/p>\n<span id=\"Degree_Requirements\"><h2>Degree Requirements<\/h2><\/span>\n<p><strong>Required Courses (39 credits)<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >EDCC 510<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >EDCC 600<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >EDCC 601<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 535<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 538<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 540<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 544<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 547<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 550<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 555<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 560<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 561<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 570<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 605<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Field Experience (9 credits, 700 hours total)<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 633<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 646<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 648<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Counseling Urban Students Track (additional 12 credits)<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 505<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 612<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 655<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COUN 695<\/span><\/p>\n<span id=\"Course_Descriptions\"><h2>Course Descriptions<\/h2><\/span>\n<p><strong>Explanation of Course Prefixes and Numbers<\/strong><br \/>\nCourses designated <a href=\"#EDCC\">EDCC<\/a> are core courses and common to various programs in the School of Education.
